Vinculación de Cuentas de Google con OAuth

Las cuentas se vinculan con el flujo de código de autorización de OAuth 2.0 estándar de la industria.

OAuth 2.1 y PKCE para agentes

Para los agentes de IA sin estado y las canalizaciones multimodales, se recomienda aplicar OAuth 2.1.

• PKCE (Proof Key for Code Exchange): Se debe usar para proteger el flujo del código de autorización y evitar ataques de interceptación.
• No hay flujo implícito: El flujo implícito expone tokens de acceso en la URL, lo que representa un riesgo de seguridad para los entornos de agentes.

Tu servicio debe admitir extremos de autorización y de intercambio de tokens que cumplan con OAuth 2.0/2.1.

Create the project

To create your project to use account linking:

1. Go to the Google API Console.
2. Click Create project.
3. Enter a name or accept the generated suggestion.
4. Confirm or edit any remaining fields.
5. Click Create.

To view your project ID:

1. Go to the Google API Console.
2. Find your project in the table on the landing page. The project ID appears in the ID column.

Configure your OAuth Consent Screen

The Google Account Linking process includes a consent screen which tells users the application requesting access to their data, what kind of data they are asking for and the terms that apply. You will need to configure your OAuth consent screen before generating a Google API client ID.

1. Open the OAuth consent screen page of the Google APIs console.
2. If prompted, select the project you just created.

3. On the "OAuth consent screen" page, fill out the form and click the “Save” button.

   Application name: The name of the application asking for consent. The name should accurately reflect your application and be consistent with the application name users see elsewhere. The application name will be shown on the Account Linking consent screen.

   Application logo: An image on the consent screen that will help users recognize your app. The logo is shown on Account linking consent screen and on account settings

   Support email: For users to contact you with questions about their consent.

   Scopes for Google APIs: Scopes allow your application to access your user's private Google data. For the Google Account Linking use case, default scope (email, profile, openid) is sufficient, you don’t need to add any sensitive scopes. It is generally a best practice to request scopes incrementally, at the time access is required, rather than up front. Learn more.

   Authorized domains: To protect you and your users, Google only allows applications that authenticate using OAuth to use Authorized Domains. Your applications' links must be hosted on Authorized Domains. Learn more.

   Application Homepage link: Home page for your application. Must be hosted on an Authorized Domain.

   Application Privacy Policy link: Shown on Google Account Linking consent screen. Must be hosted on an Authorized Domain.

   Application Terms of Service link (Optional): Must be hosted on an Authorized Domain.

4. Check "Verification Status", if your application needs verification then click the "Submit For Verification" button to submit your application for verification. Refer to OAuth verification requirements for details.

Implementa tu servidor de OAuth

An OAuth 2.0 server implementation of the authorization code flow consists of two endpoints, which your service makes available by HTTPS. The first endpoint is the authorization endpoint, which is responsible for finding or obtaining consent from users for data access. The authorization endpoint presents a sign-in UI to your users that aren't already signed in and records consent to the requested access. The second endpoint is the token exchange endpoint, which is used to obtain encrypted strings, called tokens, that authorize a user to access your service.

When a Google application needs to call one of your service's APIs, Google uses these endpoints together to get permission from your users to call these APIs on their behalf.

Google Account Linking: OAuth Authorization Code Flow

The following sequence diagram details interactions between the User, Google, and your service's endpoints.

Roles and responsibilities

The following table defines the roles and responsibilities of the actors in the Google Account Linking (GAL) OAuth flow. Note that in GAL, Google acts as the OAuth Client, while your service acts as the Identity/Service Provider.

An OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow session initiated by Google has the following flow:

1. Google opens your authorization endpoint in the user's browser. If the flow started on a voice-only device for an Action, Google transfers the execution to a phone.
2. The user signs in, if not signed in already, and grants Google permission to access their data with your API, if they haven't already granted permission.
3. Your service creates an authorization code and returns it to Google. To do so, redirect the user's browser back to Google with the authorization code attached to the request.
4. Google sends the authorization code to your token exchange endpoint, which verifies the authenticity of the code and returns an access token and a refresh token. The access token is a short-lived token that your service accepts as credentials to access APIs. The refresh token is a long-lived token that Google can store and use to acquire new access tokens when they expire.
5. After the user has completed the account linking flow, every subsequent request sent from Google contains an access token.

Implementation Recipe

Follow these steps to implement the Authorization Code flow.

Step 1: Handle authorization requests

When Google initiates account linking, it redirects the user to your authorization endpoint. For detailed protocol contracts and parameter requirements, see the Authorization Endpoint.

To handle the request, perform the following actions:

1. Validate the request:

   • Confirm that the client_id matches the Client ID assigned to Google.
   • Confirm that the redirect_uri matches the expected Google redirect URL: none https://oauth-redirect.googleusercontent.com/r/YOUR_PROJECT_ID https://oauth-redirect-sandbox.googleusercontent.com/r/YOUR_PROJECT_ID
   • Verify that response_type is code.

2. Authenticate the user:

   • Check if the user is signed in to your service.
   • If the user is not signed in, prompt them to complete your sign-in or sign-up flow.

3. Generate authorization code:

   • Create a unique, non-guessable authorization code associated with the user and client.
   • Set the code to expire in approximately 10 minutes.

4. Redirect back to Google:

   • Redirect the browser to the URL provided in redirect_uri.
   • Append the following query parameters:
     • code: The authorization code you generated.
     • state: The unmodified state value received from Google.

Step 2: Handle token exchange requests

Your token exchange endpoint processes two types of requests: exchanging codes for tokens, and refreshing expired access tokens. For detailed protocol contracts and parameter requirements, see the Token Exchange Endpoint.

A. Exchange authorization codes for tokens

When Google receives the authorization code, it calls your token exchange endpoint (POST) to retrieve tokens.

1. Validate the request:

   • Verify client_id and client_secret.
   • Verify the authorization code is valid and not expired.
   • Confirm redirect_uri matches the value used in Step 1.
   • If validation fails, return an HTTP 400 Bad Request with {"error": "invalid_grant"}.

2. Issue tokens:

   • Generate a long-lived refresh_token and a short-lived access_token (typically 1 hour).
   • Return an HTTP 200 OK with the standard JSON token response.

B. Refresh access tokens

When the access token expires, Google requests a new one using the refresh token.

1. Validate the request:

   • Verify client_id, client_secret, and refresh_token.
   • If validation fails, return an HTTP 400 Bad Request with {"error": "invalid_grant"}.

2. Issue new access token:

   • Generate a new short-lived access_token.
   • Return an HTTP 200 OK with the JSON token response (optionally including a new refresh token).

Controla las solicitudes userinfo

El extremo userinfo es un recurso protegido de OAuth 2.0 que muestra reclamos sobre el usuario vinculado. La implementación y el alojamiento del extremo userinfo son opcionales, excepto en los siguientes casos de uso:

• Acceso a la cuenta vinculada con Google One Tap.
• Suscripción sin inconvenientes en Android TV.

Una vez que el token de acceso se recupera correctamente del extremo del token, Google envía una solicitud al extremo userinfo para recuperar la información básica de perfil del usuario vinculado.

Por ejemplo, si el extremo userinfo está disponible en https://myservice.example.com/userinfo, una solicitud podría verse de la siguiente manera:

GET /userinfo HTTP/1.1
Host: myservice.example.com
Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN

Para que tu extremo userinfo controle las solicitudes, sigue estos pasos:

1. Extrae el token de acceso del encabezado de autorización y muestra la información del usuario asociada con el token de acceso.
2. Si el token de acceso no es válido, muestra un error HTTP 401 No autorizado con el encabezado de respuesta WWW-Authenticate. A continuación, se muestra un ejemplo de una respuesta de error de userinfo:

   HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
   WWW-Authenticate: error="invalid_token",
   error_description="The Access Token expired"
   

   Si se muestra una respuesta de error 401 No autorizado o cualquier otra respuesta de error no exitosa durante el proceso de vinculación, el error no se podrá recuperar, el token recuperado se descartará y el usuario deberá volver a iniciar el proceso de vinculación.

3. Si el token de acceso es válido, devuelve una respuesta HTTP 200 con el siguiente objeto JSON en el cuerpo del protocolo HTTPS respuesta:

   {
   "sub": "USER_UUID",
   "email": "EMAIL_ADDRESS",
   "given_name": "FIRST_NAME",
   "family_name": "LAST_NAME",
   "name": "FULL_NAME",
   "picture": "PROFILE_PICTURE",
   }

   Si el extremo userinfo muestra una respuesta exitosa HTTP 200, el token y las reclamaciones recuperados se registran con la Cuenta de Google del usuario.

   respuesta del extremo userinfo
   sub	Un ID único que identifica al usuario en tu sistema.
   email	Dirección de correo electrónico del usuario.
   given_name	Opcional: Es el nombre del usuario.
   family_name	Opcional: Apellido del usuario.
   name	Opcional: Es el nombre completo del usuario.
   picture	Opcional: Foto de perfil del usuario.
