OAuth For Noobs

Raw

oauth-for-noobs.md

Notes on oAuth because I keep forgetting how to do it.

Google

Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/
Make a new Project
Go to "Credentials" https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials?project=
If you haven't yet, you will Configure Consent Screen first: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials/consent?project=
Under OAuth 2.0 Client IDs. [+ Create Credentials] - OAuth Client ID.

http://localhost:3000 is the only allowed domain if you're doing local dev. Local reverse proxies to stuff like 192.168 (which if you're doing mobile webdev, might be hard).
Make sure Authorized redirect URIs is the '/callback' handler endpoint of your API.

When still not published, make sure to go to Audience and add test users like your email: https://console.cloud.google.com/auth/audience?project=
Finish everything, and you're good.
