Cc connected login gmail
You're looking to connect your Gmail account to a third-party app or service using OAuth 2.0. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you do so:
Step 1: Create a project in the Google Cloud Console
- Go to the Google Cloud Console and create a new project.
- Click on "Select a project" and then click on "New Project".
- Enter a project name, and click on "Create".
Step 2: Enable the Google Sign-In API
- In the sidebar, click on "APIs & Services" and then click on "Dashboard".
- Click on "Enable APIs and Services" and search for "Google Sign-In API".
- Click on "Google Sign-In API" and then click on the "Enable" button.
Step 3: Create credentials for your app
- In the sidebar, click on "APIs & Services" and then click on "Credentials".
- Click on "Create Credentials" and then select "OAuth client ID".
- Select "Web application" and enter a authorized JavaScript origins (e.g.
http://localhost:3000
). - Click on "Create" and copy the client ID and client secret.
Step 4: Configure your app to use OAuth 2.0
- In your app, you'll need to redirect the user to the Google authorization URL to authenticate.
- The authorization URL will be in the format:
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID&redirect_uri=YOUR_REDIRECT_URI&response_type=code&scope=openid+profile+email
- After the user authenticates, Google will redirect them back to your app with an authorization code.
- You'll need to exchange the authorization code for an access token by sending a POST request to
https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token
with the following parameters:grant_type=authorization_code
code=THE_AUTHORIZATION_CODE
redirect_uri=YOUR_REDIRECT_URI
client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID
client_secret=YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET
Step 5: Use the access token to access the user's Gmail account
- Once you have the access token, you can use it to access the user's Gmail account by sending a GET request to
https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/me
with the access token in theAuthorization
header. - You can also use the access token to send emails, read emails, and perform other Gmail-related actions.
Here's an example of how you might use the access token to read the user's Gmail inbox:
import requests
access_token = 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'
headers = {
'Authorization': f'Bearer {access_token}',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
response = requests.get('https://www.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/me/threads', headers=headers)
if response.status_code == 200:
print(response.json())
else:
print('Error:', response.status_code)
Note that this is just a basic example, and you'll need to handle errors and implement additional security measures to ensure that your app is secure and compliant with Google's policies.
