Site-kit-wp: Oauth is generating API key instead of Client Credentials

[zaadams]

Hi,
When trying to connect Site Kit to WP, On step 1 for creating new client ID, I follow the link and when I arrive at the page, I click Generate OAuth Credentials. Instead of giving me Client Credentials, It gives me an API Key. The Plug in is not wanting an API Key.

I hope this gets fixed soon.

Is there a way to manually create the client config? I already have a Google Cloud Project created, can I insert my apps credentials into a code snippet template? Maybe this could be a temporary work-around?

Yup same issue here..

You can manually set it up by entering details in given code

{ "web": { "client_id": "Client ID Goes Here", "project_id": "Project ID Goes Here", "auth_url": "https://accounts.google.com/o/auth2/auth", "token_url": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token", "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs", "client_secret": "Client Secret Goes Here", "redirect_uris": [ "https://yourdomain.com?oauth2callback=1" ] } }

Example is given below

{ "web": { "client_id": "1031765-a0i7j5327d40fvcmmkaug2s81eb.apps.googleusercontent.com", "project_id": "news-angels-156987741", "auth_url": "https://accounts.google.com/o/auth2/auth", "token_url": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token", "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs", "client_secret": "EHeTYxchhvuufvTlYq", "redirect_uris": [ "https://newsangels.com?oauth2callback=1" ] } }

[hfrid]

@usmanswift Thanks a lot! I Was struggling for sure.

I found this which might help, Once you correctly enter your callback details you can download the JSON config here.
