OAuth2 token with google play services on Android

I'm attempting to get a Oauth2 token for Google Cloud Storage on Android using Google Play services. I am using the following code

try {
        gsToken=GoogleAuthUtil.getToken(this, email,
            "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/devstorage.read_only");
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (UserRecoverableAuthException userAuthEx) {
            startActivityForResult(userAuthEx.getIntent(),1);;
    } catch (GoogleAuthException e) {

    }

This throws a GoogleAuthException. Is this scope not supported at this time by Google PLay Services??

You need to prefix the scope with the string "oauth2:" when asking GoogleAuthUtil for OAuth2 tokens. If you want multiple scopes you can list them with a space separator.

So, in your case the scope string would be "oauth2:https://www.googleapis.com/auth/devstorage.read_only".
