Try Sign-In for Android

Use our Android sample app to see how Sign-In works, or add Sign-In to your existing app.

Required: The latest versions of Android Studio and Google Play Services.

Get the project

If this is your first time using a Google services sample, check out the google-services repository.

$ git clone https://github.com/googlesamples/google-services.git

Open Android Studio.

Select File > Open, browse to where you cloned the google-services repository, and open google-services/android/signin.

Configure a Google API Console project

To use the sample, you need to configure a Google API Console project with an Android client and a Web application client:

Open an existing project in the API Console, or create a project if you don't already have one.
On the OAuth consent screen page, make sure all of the information is complete and accurate.
On the Credentials page, create an Android type client ID. The package name for the sample app is com.google.samples.quickstart.signin. You will also need to provide the SHA-1 hash from your signing certificate fingerprint. See Authenticating Your Client for information.
On the Credentials page, create a Web application type client ID. You can leave the Authorized JavaScript Origins and Authorized redirect URIs fields blank. This web client ID is required by the sample's IdTokenActivity and ServerAuthCodeActivity examples. In a real app, this client ID would represent your app's backend server.
Copy and paste the client ID into your project's strings.xml file:
```
<string name="server_client_id">YOUR_SERVER_CLIENT_ID</string>
```

Run the sample

Now you're ready to build the sample and run it from Android Studio.

Build the sample and click the run button and select a connected device or emulator with the latest version of Google Play services.

How it works

The application builds a GoogleSignInClient, specifying the sign-in options it needs. Then, when the sign-in button is clicked, the application starts the sign-in intent, which prompts the user to sign in with a Google account.

// Configure sign-in to request the user's ID, email address, and basic
// profile. ID and basic profile are included in DEFAULT_SIGN_IN.
GoogleSignInOptions gso = new GoogleSignInOptions.Builder(GoogleSignInOptions.DEFAULT_SIGN_IN)
        .requestEmail()
        .build();

// Build a GoogleSignInClient with the options specified by gso.
mGoogleSignInClient = GoogleSignIn.getClient(this, gso);

private void signIn() {
    Intent signInIntent = mGoogleSignInClient.getSignInIntent();
    startActivityForResult(signInIntent, RC_SIGN_IN);
}
