When making an auth request to the Google API (gapi), it's returning false on the checkOrigin.
I have removed any client id's or anything that would link directly to my account and replaced it with a regex indicating what the data is for reference.
Url: https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/iframerpc?action=checkOrigin&origin=https%3A%2F%2Flocal.tools&client_id=(\d{21})
My origin url is a local url, which is https://local.tools
Result: {valid: false}
I'm using the example found here without deviation (except for replacing clientid with my 21 digit clientid): https://ga-dev-tools.appspot.com/embed-api/third-party-visualizations/
The items I'm trying to display show up nicely on the demo site, but aren't getting past the Not valid origin for the client error on my local.tools site.
I received the same console error message when working with this example: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/reporting/embed/v1/getting-started
The documentation says not to overlook two critical steps ("As you go through the instructions, it's important that you not overlook these two critical steps: Enable the Analytics API [&] Set the correct origins"), but does not clearly state WHERE to set the correct origins.
Since the client ID I had was not working, I created a new project and a new client ID. The new project may not have been necessary, but I'm retaining (and using) it.
Here's what worked:
- Create a new project
- Add and Enable the Analytics API
- Create a new credential - ensure that it is an OAUTH credential (scroll to the bottom of this page for instructions https://developers.google.com/api-client-library/javascript/start/start-js#Setup).
During creation of the credentials, you will see a section called "Restrictions Enter JavaScript origins, redirect URIs, or both". This is where you can enter your origins.
Save and copy your client ID (and secret).
My script worked after I created the new OAUTH credential, assigned the origin, and used the newly generated client ID following this process.
Clear your browser cache. Started getting this error in Chrome and then I created a new client id and was still getting the issue. Opened firefox and it worked, so I cleared the cache on Chrome and it started working.
Credentials do not work if API is not enabled. In my case the next steps was needed:
- Go to https://console.developers.google.com/apis/library
- Enter 'People'
- From the result choose 'Google People API'
- Click 'Enable'
try clear caches and then hard reload, i had same error but when i tried to run on incognito browser in chrome it worked.
For me - I just went here:
https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials
Then chose the right project; then choose the credential with the same ID shown in your console error message. When editing the credentials you can add multiple origins to the white list.
Creating new oauth credentials worked for me
I got the error because of Allow-Control-Allow-Origin: * browser extension.
