Creating a Google service

Authenticating with Google requires creating a Google app, and then creating a corresponding Google service in Brightspot.

To create a Google service:

1. Ensure that you have already configured a Google app as described in the following steps:
   
   1. Navigate to Google Cloud Console - API Credentials.
   2. Click OAuth consent screen and fill out the form, then click Save.
   3. Click Create Credentials and name the application.
   4. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret.
2. Click menu > Social > Services.
3. In the Services widget, click New Google Service.
4. Under Name, enter a name for this Google service.
5. Under Client ID, paste the client ID you copied from Google.
6. Under Client Secret, paste the client secret you copied from Google.
7. Click Save.

Once you have created a Google service, slot it into the Google Service field when configuring Google authentication settings.
