If I just want to enable Oauth with goolge do I need to enable apis for that?
If I do which ones do I need I just want to be able to use passthru authentication with oauth2, I have been looking at questions for hours trying to find a solution to this error. the only thing that doesn't look quite right is that the full client_id is not displayed in the error the url is a little longer.
401. That’s an error.
Error: invalid_client
The OAuth client was not found.
Request Details
response_type=code
redirect_uri=http://localhost:8080/auth/google/callback
scope=profile email
client_id= 404342589460-ig7nuv617skbfaestvsc1jrpqtnipvv2.apps.googleuserconte
Don't need to enable apis. After copy values from Google web UI, remove blank space at the beginning and at the end of both client ID and secret.

Cheers everybody,
we have been deeply reading google documentation on exchanging access_token from google in order our (delphi)desktop application to SSO with google from server side. Here is the payload we send first look like:
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth?client_id=1000217514248-t1lojs6f8ed7l9ocrpbm98leahtum8n1.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=urn%3Aietf%3Awg%3Aoauth%3A2.0%3Aoob&response_type=code&state=E1DF2FBA-0A66-4D69-B594-5EB8F7828AF7&scope=openid+profile&include_granted_scopes=true&code_challenge=C832DA50-E55A-499D-89B8-493BB4123C94&login_hint=test#Speelkriebel.be
Normally after this it redirects me to login in to our test user and after this according to the documentation we send a POST request to the end point token in order to get the access_token and refresh_token...: 'https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token
with the following parameters, the 'code' is generated we also send it as follow:
client_id=1000217514248-t1lojs6f8ed7l9ocrpbm98leahtum8n1.apps.googleusercontent.com
grant_type=authorization_code
client_secret=******
code= 4/1AY0e-g4GlavO38PI5Oo3vq04Pc4lMWN77et-02UiVWOsT-IyRQnU1lq19qo
redirect_uri = urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob
The response is always
{
"error_description": "Missing code verifier.",
"error": "invalid_grant"
}
We have tried to send the client secret id also, Does it have to do with our code_challenge ? are the end points url and initial url okay? What are we missing? We are using CEF4Delphi as "browser like experience in order for the user to type in their google credentials. We have been reading this: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server#offline
We were also trying the playground :https://developers.google.com/oauthplayground/
we were sending the initial url in a chrome which generated a "code" and in the playground we inserted the code, and still got the same error of missing code verifier.
Thanks Guys
You seam to have URL encoded a lot of the values try not doing that. Also try using the basic call, before you start adding everything else. It should help you figure out which one of those extra parameters you are sending that's causing your issues.
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id={clientid}&redirect_uri=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob&scope=profile&response_type=code
Also make sure that the client id is from an installed / other type client
This may also help Google 3 Legged OAuth2 Flow
For installed apps, the code challenge and verifier are parameters for enhancing the security of the OAuth flow through PKCE [1].
There is additional documentation about generating a code challenge and verifier here [2].

[2] https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/native-app#step1-code-verifier
I'm trying to learn about OAUTH and OpenID Connect.
Thus I am investigating my own traffic, listening to Authorization Requests and Grants by checking for required parameters in OAUTH as described in https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6749#section-4.1.1 and https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6749#section-4.1.2 for the Authorization Code Flow as well as described in section 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 for the Implicit Flow.
Unfortunately, by using the SSO option for Google on joinhoney.com, I am only able to catch the Request, but not the Authorization Grant.
So, while debugging and having a look at the actual request, I can see the following parameters in the query part of the url:
Parameter
Value
redirect_uri
storagerelay://https/www.joinhoney.com?id=auth[censoredID]
response_type
permission id_token
scope
email profile openid
openid.realm
client_id
705229005811-2fdpup66d8aefq4qs2ru1n8qiosuq4fb.apps.googleusercontent.com
ss_domain
https://www.joinhoney.com
fetch_basic_profile
true
gsiwebsdk
2
Now, to get to the actual question:
Where can I find some specified information about the ss_domain parameter?
I could not find any information in https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6749 as well as on https://openid.net/, however when using google, I can find some people using the ss_domain parameter (only without further explanation), so I doubt it is something only used by joinhoney.com.
Would be happy if somebody could bring some light in here!
Thank you!
If you are at www.example.com, and you your redirect_uri is to a different domain e.g. subdomain.example.com, you need to set ss_domain to https://subdomain.example.com.
This custom ss_domain change, however, is not possible using the Google login client side sdk. You got to push the url manually.
As part of the OpenID Connect (OAuth2 for Login), my application is supposed to request an access token, given a one-time authorization code, via the endpoint https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/token. According to documentation, this request needs 5 parameters passed to it, client_id among them. That is exactly what my application does, using the Perl module Net::OAuth2.
Everything has been working fine for several months, but today I was notified that it stopped working. No updates were made to the application code nor the libraries used by it.
The message my application now receives from the server when calling the token endpoint is this, in a 400 error response:
OAuth 2 parameters can only have a single value: client_id
A Google search suggests nobody has ever seen this message before, or lived to tell the tale. There doesn't seem to be a general issue with Google's OpenID Connect (other services based on it are working flawlessly), and the imminent shutdown of the old login protocol doesn't seem relevant.
More testing: removing all parameters except client_id causes this error message:
Required parameter is missing: grant_type
Supplying only client_id and grant_type produces the original error message again.
Does anyone have an idea what's going on here?
Google changed this behavior few days ago, so any OAuth2 library using Basic Auth headers AND body request parameters will start to see messages like
OAuth 2 parameters can only have a single value: client_id
or
OAuth 2 parameters can only have a single value: client_secret
So, you must now do NOT use both (the Auth headers and body request parameters) at the same time to send credentials to Google.
And according RFC 6749, the preferable way to send credentials is through Auth headers (thanks #JanKrüger for alert me about this).
Got the same error. It seems the problem is that NET::OAuth2 sets the authorization header when exchanging authorization code for access token. If you remove this header everything works fine.
Check the get_access_token method in Net::OAuth2::Profile::WebServer module. The authorization header includes client_id:client_secret base64-encoded string. Apparently Google now treats this duplication as an error.
The right way of fixing this is to set the secrets_in_params parameter when creating Net::OAuth2::Profile::WebServer object. Look in the Net::OAuth2::Profile documentation for more details.
I'm currently working on an app that needs to integrate Vimeo. I'm therefore adapting my working OAuth2 client to allow authorization to Vimeo it's new beta API.
However, there are some things that are unclear to me, and the documentation is a bit vague on the matter.
Should I get the client authorized before authentication?
The user authentication url is https://api.vimeo.com/oauth/authorize, should I send a GET or POST request to this URL with the required parameters?
Should I send a basic authorization header (Authorization : basic base64(client_id:client_secret) along with authentication or should it be unauthenticated authorization header (Authorization : Bearer unauthenticated_access_token)?
Should I handle the authentication dialog through a UIWebView or through Safari?
Furthermore, I seem to get the error: { "error": "An unknown error has occured. Please let us know!"} when handling authentication through Safari. Does anyone have a clue on what actually went wrong or provide a way to find out? (Seems Vimeo improved their error displaying overnight ;))
The actual error I get is that the redirect_uri and client_id are missing, but I'm reasonably sure they get provided in the request body when doing a POST, or in the parameters when doing a GET. Any pointers?
Client authorization is not necessary to generate User authentication. Client authorization is only necessary to make unauthenticated api requests.
You don't make a request to api.vimeo.com/oauth/authorize, you send your user there. You should create a link, and put it on a page for your user to click. They will make a GET request to that endpoint, but it should not happen through your server.
Since your client is making a request to /oauth/authorize, there is no way you can define the headers. You will need to provide an authorization header to /oauth/access_token, and this should be Authorization : basic base64(client_id:client_secret)
We did fix a bug last night in our oauth error reporting :D. Sorry for the temporary confusion.
Without more information I can't really answer your error message. I'll add some comments, and then update this answer with more information.
I'm trying to implement Google OAuth 2 to get access to Google APIs. I follow this guide, using server-side scenario.
I have no problem with getting the code, server redirects to localhost (which is the only server allowed in redirect URIs for now).
To achieve this, I go to https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id=whatever.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=http://localhost/&scope=https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/&response_type=code page.
Then, I tried using curl (as in guide) to test, if Google's server responds with access token. However, it seems to fail very hard. Only response I can get is {"error":"invalid_client"}. I'm sure I provide everything Google wants me to provide - code, client ID, client secret, redirect URI (localhost) and grant_type=authorization_code.
Whole curl command line is:
curl https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token -d "code=<code>&client_id=whatever.apps.googleusercontent.com&client_secret=<won't tell!>&redirect_uri=http://localhost&grant_type=authorization_code"
Am I missing something? How can I exchange code for access token?
Did you urlencode your client secret and redirect url? That works for me.
Should be http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost instead of https://localhost.
I had the same error until I realized that I was trying to connect with a client ID which I created for iOS. So for me the solution was to create a new API key-secret pair on the API Console with the platform set to "other".
Now I'm getting other errors but that's another story. ;)
Happens when you use wrong Client secret. Make sure you are using correct Client secret from Google API console. I was using Email address since API console displays the information in the following order:
Client ID
Email address
Client secret
