Google-signin: Getting Developer Error even after putting everything in place in release mode (Android)

[Ragnar-23]

Info

React native google signIn is working fine in debug mode.
But google siginIn is not working in release mode, its giving DEVELOPER_ERROR code 10.
I have added both debug and release certificates on firebase console, everything is checked.

But still I am getting DEVELOPER_ERROR. Do we need to add SHA1 from playstore also for release mode (apk generated using ./gradlew assembleRelease)?

Maybe you turned on Google Play Signature in Play Market. This feature replaces your certificate by auto-generated by Google.
You can find it at the Play Console on the page 'App signature'. You can download deployment certificate or just copy-paste fingerprints MD5, SHA1, etc.
Copy SHA1 to Firebase Console App settings Android app.

PS. Also, it works for Facebook sign in. Download the certificate and do something like this:

cat ~/Downloads/deployment_cert.der | openssl sha1 -binary | openssl base64

to get hash to use with Facebook application settings

PS. I'm not a contributor. I'm also dev. :)

I'm having the same problem

I'm having same problem.

I have used a webClientId which I put to the whitelisted client ids in firebase console inside google login. But still it gives me DEVELOPER_ERROR. If I use my debug keystore, the login works because I have added the SHA1 of debug keystore in firebase console. But I cannot add the SHA1 of release keystore because it is already used in another project which I have lost access to. So I have created a new web client and added its id to the firebase google login whitelist and using the same inside the app. But still getting DEVELOPER_ERROR

I use this package every year and every year I have to come back here. Lol

If you're still having this problem try this solution https://github.com/react-native-community/google-signin/issues/706#issuecomment-656126219

[abhilashfancy]

@usmansbk your solution did not help. I have already added the correct SHA1 to firebase. I am not using the default debug keystore. I have created my own and added the SHA1 to firebase. When I build the app using this keystore it works fine. But when I do the same with another keystore it does not work even after whitelisting the web client id

[stanica]

Just started getting this problem too. Everything seems to be configured correctly, including SHA1.

[rnnyrk]

Can't seem to solve this issue. I have two custom keystores setup.
What I did:

1. Exported the SHA-1 with keytool -exportcert -alias KEYSTORE_ALIAS -keystore KEYSTORE_PATH and inserted this to my dev and prod app in Firebase
2. Also on https://console.developers.google.com/ I have two OAuth 2.0-client-ID's with the correct package names and SHA-1 fingerprints
3. Copied the webClientId from Firebase Console > Authentication > GoogleSignIn and added it before the signin with Google.Configure
4. My Android build buildTypes are as following:

    buildTypes {
        debug {
            debuggable true
            productFlavors.dev.signingConfig signingConfigs.dev
            productFlavors.prod.signingConfig signingConfigs.prod
        }
        release {
            debuggable false
            minifyEnabled enableProguardInReleaseBuilds
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
            proguardFiles fileTree(dir: "${project.rootDir}/proguard_libs", include: ["*.pro"]).asList().toArray()
            productFlavors.dev.signingConfig signingConfigs.dev
            productFlavors.prod.signingConfig signingConfigs.prod
        }
    }

1. Downloaded my latest google-services.json
2. Ran ./gradlew clean and adb uninstall com.packagename
3. npm run android

Still the same DEVELOPER_ERROR.
I'm really out of options.. Anyone suggestions?

[usmansbk]

Always check the version to debug-keystore SHA you generated. I think there's one in the android/ folder of the project and there's ~/android of the whole system.

[kushavi2509]

No matters weather you are using a firebase or NOT you have to have both the configurations (Android as well as Web client )

//DeveloperError or any login error
https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/android/start-integrating#next_steps

Click on Configure a prioject
Select the project.
Fille the required fields.
Voylla, you are good to go.

[SanjanaTailor]

I am facing same developer_error since I am using android React native app to complete google singin.
Also, I am not using Firebase to login
I created both OauthCilent android and Web client 2 and giving same id here to signin

GoogleSignin.configure ({
      webClientId: '***.apps.googleusercontent.com',
})

also to create SHA-1 for android used this command to C:\Users\satailor\Documents\ReactNative_workspace\App>keytool -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\satailor\Documents\ReactNative_workspace\app\android\app\debug.keystore
and copied SHA-1 and added in google cloud console for same.

Inside Android folder following changes are added:
settings.gradle file
include ':react-native-google-signin', ':app'

android/build.gradle file included following lines:

buildscript {
 ext {
     googlePlayServicesAuthVersion = "17.0.0"
}

dependencies { classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.2'}

Help me to resolve an issue. Let me know any other information required.

Is there currently any solution to this problem? As many of you, I am struggling with the same problem. Everything is in place but I still get DEVELOPER_ERROR.

[shivanshr]

Please help with this issue, I have tried everything available on the git and stack-overlow for this issue.
All of the information cross checked twice, fingerprints, etc, created and deleted project twice.

[shivanshrajpoot]

If you are using firebase & still looking for solutions:

1. Please match your key fingerprint in firebase console.

2. Do not initialize the configuration with keys, I repeat, do not provide any configuration object in the .configure() function
   Do this GoogleSignIn.configure().

3. Point 2 will resolve the issue. :)

Not having an argument will throw to me
Must specify an idToken or an accessToken.

closing because this is not an issue with the library but with the app setup / environment. Thanks

Nice work
