Codelabs Builder

This app is a building block for Google OAuth for claat codelabs

Getting set up

You will need to create an app and enable the Google Drive API (only the drive.readonly permission is needed).

• Then get the client ID and secret, and set them in the .env file. To do this, go to Create Credentials > OAuth client ID. You will then need to setup the OAuth content screen but all you have to do is set a product name, all other fields are optional. Click save and set the Application type to ‘Web application’. Then you need to provide the ‘Authorized redirect URIs’. This is your Glitch project URL, with '/login/google/return' appended to the end. Your Glitch project URL has the format https://project-name.glitch.me. Once done, click Create. Then copy and paste the generated client ID and secret into the .env file in your Glitch project.
