Join us at this online event for an in-depth exploration of Google Authentication with OutSystems. Discover the transformative capabilities of Google Authentication and gain valuable insights into empowering your projects. Engage with fellow developers, share experiences, and unlock the full potential of OutSystems' Capabilities.

Key Takeaways from the event

1.Google Developer Console:

Go to the Google Developer Console (https://console.developers.google.com/).

Create a new project and configure the OAuth 2.0 credentials.

Obtain the Client ID and Client Secret.

2. OutSystems Integration:

In OutSystems Service Studio, create or open your existing OutSystems application.

Use the 'Google Sign-In' component or implement OAuth 2.0 authentication through custom logic.

Configure the OAuth provider settings with the Client ID and Client Secret obtained from the Google Developer Console.

3. User Interface:

Design a login screen that includes a "Login with Google" button.

Implement logic to initiate the Google authentication process when the button is clicked.

4. Authentication Flow:

When the user clicks "Login with Google," your OutSystems application should redirect them to Google's authentication page.

After the user authenticates with Google, Google will redirect them back to your application with an authentication token.

5. Token Validation:

Implement logic to validate the token received from Google.

Extract user information from the validated token and use it to create or authenticate the user in your OutSystems application.

5. User Management:

Create or update user records in your OutSystems database based on the information received from Google.

Store relevant user details in session variables for the user's session.

6. Error Handling:

Implement error handling for cases where authentication fails or is not completed successfully.
