I'm trying to create an app where a user can log in using their google account, and I request the scope for forms access, so that if they have a google form they put out, they can give me the formId..
and I will be able to get access to the forms responses via the forms API.
I got the google sign on working with the correct scopes being requested. I got the access token. But when I pass it to my backend server and make a request using it I get:
{
code: 401,
message: 'Request had invalid authentication credentials. Expected OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential. See https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/devconsole-project.',
status: 'UNAUTHENTICATED'
}
ERR_BAD_REQUEST
Request failed with status code 401
This is definitely the right token being passed through.
my code looks like:
this.http
.get(`https://forms.googleapis.com/v1/forms/${formId}/responses`, {
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${key}`,
},
})
.toPromise()
.then((response) => {
console.log(response.data);
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(error.response.data.error);
console.error(error.code);
console.error(error.message);
});
The user that logged in (me) definitely has access to the form requested (the form created by me).
access token is the varialbe 'key'.. and is of the form:
4/0AVHEtk6Kalxxxxxx7gFlvJwQiscKC2qoVDxxxxxxjRe068Nxxxx-xxxxxx929PPHxxxxxx
Where x's are obviously, hidden for this post's sake.
Form ID i copy-pasted from the URL when i access the google form:
1YADM_5W6I7A22GtxWS1BF2ibWpwCRFuZd4zxxxxxxxx
Anyone run into this issue?
I don't have a verified clientId yet on google cloud, but I've set it to non-production and "testing", and I've added my current user to the list of test users so I expect that it should work for local testing with that particular user even IF it's not a verified app yet.
