OAuth2 auth code flow

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug OAuth2 does not work with Google. Have tried both the authorization code flow and implicit grant flow, and both have the same error. The OAuth2 client credentials type in the Google console is “Web application”.

This browser or app may not be secure.

Try using a different browser. If you’re already using a supported browser, you can refresh your screen and try again to sign in.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Use a request using oAuth2
Use Google as the identity provider for sign in

Expected behavior It should work.

I’ve used firebase auth (to great success!) so I think I understand what you’re trying to do. This is helpful that you describe it because I would, frankly, also expect it to work with firebase auth like you’re trying.

I don’t have an immediate response on this, but I want you to know that we’re aware of this and will look into it, although I cannot provide an estimate.

On a personal note, I want this to work just for my own use, if nothing else, haha.

I can verify that what @popovanastas is probably the issue. I was seeing it with Auth0. When using Postman though, I can’t used their backed in browser or I get the same error…
