I get the above error after: going to /sign-in/go, clicking my google account from the list google gives me, then … error (url looks like http://localhost:61337/sign-in/after?code=4/BIsK3AIVt0p-Lk5ZGsyVqrv3KG3FevvO_ZPeKTwF6Tm# at this stage.)

Here’s my code:

const express=require('express');
const app = express();
const passport = require('passport');
const GoogleStrategy = require('passport-google-oauth20').Strategy;

passport.use(new GoogleStrategy({
  clientID: process.env.GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID,
  clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET,
  callbackURL: '/sign-in/after'
},
function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, cb) {
  User.findOrCreate({ googleId: profile.id }, function (err, user) {
    return cb(err, user);
  });
}));

app.get('/sign-in/go', passport.authenticate('google', { scope: ['profile'] }));

app.get('/sign-in/after',
  passport.authenticate('google', { failureRedirect: '/sign-in' }),
  function(req, res) {
    // Successful authentication, redirect home.
    res.redirect('/');
  });

const httpServer = app.listen(app.get('port'));

@theonlygusti I was just having this error, make sure you enabled the Google+ API in the developer console.

Hi @highviewstudios, best to store it as an environment variable on your deployment server, and access it via process.env.GOOGLE__API_KEY in your application code or something like that. Storing it in the code is never advisable.
