    Is there any specific instructions for Google API setup?

    When I go to the developer site, I see the Maps API information I already have setup, then the whole library of other apps….I’m just not sure where to get the specific APP ID and Secret for this.

    Is there a specific library app item to be setup?

    I see some documentation for FB/IG only, but nothing for Google, Twitter, LI, etc.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers

    Patrik,

    As usual, I think Google has changed some naming and shifted things around a bit.

    Tried going through the instructions on the other link, but not quite seeing all the same things, and even where I’ve worked my way through assuming some things are just named a little differently, still running into some challenges.

    Could someone check and update those?

    Cheers

    Hi,

    Here are the steps for you:
    1. Go to https://console.developers.google.com
    2. You will see dropdown after Google APIs logo click on it and then click Create Project link on the top right corner of the popup.
    3. Fill in the details for the new project and click on create.
    4. Again go to projects dropdown and select the project you created recently.
    5. Click on ENABLE APIS AND SERVICES button and search for Google+ API and click on the enable button to enable that API.
    6. After enabling click on the OAuth consent screen on the left sidebar menu and fill up all the details. Don’t forget to enter your site URL into the Authorized domains.
    7. After that you will need to create credentials. Go to credentials on left sidebar menu. Click on Create credentials button and select OAuth client ID.
    8. Choose Web application from the list and fill all the details. Enter the URL from the UsersWP google social login settings to the Authorized redirect URIs field and click on create.
    9. You will get your Client ID and Client Secret in the popup. Enter those into our UWP google social login settings and you are done.

    Let me know if this helps you. If you see any error then let me know the screenshot of the error.

    Regards,
    Patrik

    Ok, that helps.

    Am getting a Verification Status message on the OAuth consent screen:

    Verification Status
    Needs verification
    Because you updated the application logo, your app registration requires verification by Google. Please prepare your app to submit for verification.

    And when I click on the “prepare your app” part I get this:

    URL not found
    We couldn’t find what you were looking for. Try one of the links below.

    Google Developers Console Home
    Google Cloud Platform
    Google Developers

    Anyway, at this point I may just hold off on this until moving the site from the staging server to production anyway to avoid having to reconfigure any of the specific URLs to point to the right pages.

    Cheers
