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

  1. Go to the Google Cloud Console and create a new project.
  2. Click on "Select a project" and then click on "New Project".
  3. Enter a project name, and click on "Create".

Step 2: Enable the Google Sign-In API

  1. In the sidebar, click on "APIs & Services" and then click on "Dashboard".
  2. Click on "Enable APIs and Services" and search for "Google Sign-In API".
  3. Click on "Google Sign-In API" and then click on the "Enable" button.

Step 3: Create credentials for your app

  1. In the sidebar, click on "APIs & Services" and then click on "Credentials".
  2. Click on "Create Credentials" and then select "OAuth client ID".
  3. Select "Web application" and enter a authorized JavaScript origins (e.g. http://localhost:3000).
  4. Click on "Create" and copy the client ID and client secret.

Step 4: Configure your app to use OAuth 2.0

  1. In your app, you'll need to redirect the user to the Google authorization URL to authenticate.
  2. 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
  3. After the user authenticates, Google will redirect them back to your app with an authorization code.
  4. 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

  1. 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 the Authorization header.
  2. 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.
