Autenticazione con un server di backend

Se utilizzi Accedi con Google su un'app o un sito che comunica con un server di backend, potresti dover identificare l'utente che ha eseguito l'accesso sul server. Per farlo in sicurezza, dopo che un utente ha eseguito l'accesso, invia il token ID dell'utente al tuo server utilizzando HTTPS. Quindi, sul server, verifica l'integrità del token ID e utilizza le informazioni utente contenute nel token per stabilire una sessione o creare un nuovo account.

Invia il token ID al tuo server

Dopo che un utente ha eseguito l'accesso, recupera il token ID dell'utente:

Swift

GIDSignIn.sharedInstance.signIn(withPresenting: self) { signInResult, error in
    guard error == nil else { return }
    guard let signInResult = signInResult else { return }

    signInResult.user.refreshTokensIfNeeded { user, error in
        guard error == nil else { return }
        guard let user = user else { return }

        let idToken = user.idToken
        // Send ID token to backend (example below).
    }
}

Objective-C

[GIDSignIn.sharedInstance signInWithPresentingViewController:self
                                              completion:^(GIDSignInResult * _Nullable signInResult,
                                                           NSError * _Nullable error) {
      if (error) { return; }
      if (signInResult == nil) { return; }

      [signInResult.user refreshTokensIfNeededWithCompletion:^(GIDGoogleUser * _Nullable user,
                                                               NSError * _Nullable error) {
          if (error) { return; }
          if (user == nil) { return; }

          NSString *idToken = user.idToken;
          // Send ID token to backend (example below).
      }];
}];

Quindi, invia il token ID al tuo server con una richiesta POST HTTPS:

Swift

func tokenSignInExample(idToken: String) {
    guard let authData = try? JSONEncoder().encode(["idToken": idToken]) else {
        return
    }
    let url = URL(string: "https://yourbackend.example.com/tokensignin")!
    var request = URLRequest(url: url)
    request.httpMethod = "POST"
    request.setValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")

    let task = URLSession.shared.uploadTask(with: request, from: authData) { data, response, error in
        // Handle response from your backend.
    }
    task.resume()
}

Objective-C

NSString *signinEndpoint = @"https://yourbackend.example.com/tokensignin";
NSDictionary *params = @{@"idtoken": idToken};

NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:signinEndpoint];
[request setValue:@"application/x-www-form-urlencoded" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
[request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
[request setHTTPBody:[self httpBodyForParamsDictionary:params]];

NSOperationQueue *queue = [[NSOperationQueue alloc] init];
[NSURLConnection sendAsynchronousRequest:request
                                   queue:queue
                       completionHandler:^(NSURLResponse *response, NSData *data, NSError *error) {
                         if (error) {
                           NSLog(@"Error: %@", error.localizedDescription);
                         } else {
                           NSLog(@"Signed in as %@", data.bytes);
                         }
                       }];

Verifica l'integrità del token ID

Dopo aver ricevuto il token ID tramite HTTPS POST, devi verificarne l'integrità.

To verify that the token is valid, ensure that the following criteria are satisfied:

  • The ID token is properly signed by Google. Use Google's public keys (available in JWK or PEM format) to verify the token's signature. These keys are regularly rotated; examine the Cache-Control header in the response to determine when you should retrieve them again.
  • The value of aud in the ID token is equal to one of your app's client IDs. This check is necessary to prevent ID tokens issued to a malicious app being used to access data about the same user on your app's backend server.
  • The value of iss in the ID token is equal to accounts.google.com or https://accounts.google.com.
  • The expiry time (exp) of the ID token has not passed.
  • If you need to validate that the ID token represents a Google Workspace or Cloud organization account, you can check the hd claim, which indicates the hosted domain of the user. This must be used when restricting access to a resource to only members of certain domains. The absence of this claim indicates that the account does not belong to a Google hosted domain.

Using the email, email_verified and hd fields, you can determine if Google hosts and is authoritative for an email address. In the cases where Google is authoritative, the user is known to be the legitimate account owner, and you may skip password or other challenge methods.

Cases where Google is authoritative:

  • email has a @gmail.com suffix, this is a Gmail account.
  • email_verified is true and hd is set, this is a G Suite account.

Users may register for Google Accounts without using Gmail or G Suite. When email does not contain a @gmail.com suffix and hd is absent, Google is not authoritative and password or other challenge methods are recommended to verify the user. email_verified can also be true as Google initially verified the user when the Google account was created, however ownership of the third party email account may have since changed.

Rather than writing your own code to perform these verification steps, we strongly recommend using a Google API client library for your platform, or a general-purpose JWT library. For development and debugging, you can call our tokeninfo validation endpoint.

Using a Google API Client Library

Using one of the Google API Client Libraries (e.g. Java, Node.js, PHP, Python) is the recommended way to validate Google ID tokens in a production environment.

Java

To validate an ID token in Java, use the GoogleIdTokenVerifier object. For example:

import com.google.api.client.googleapis.auth.oauth2.GoogleIdToken;
import com.google.api.client.googleapis.auth.oauth2.GoogleIdToken.Payload;
import com.google.api.client.googleapis.auth.oauth2.GoogleIdTokenVerifier;

...

GoogleIdTokenVerifier verifier = new GoogleIdTokenVerifier.Builder(transport, jsonFactory)
    // Specify the CLIENT_ID of the app that accesses the backend:
    .setAudience(Collections.singletonList(CLIENT_ID))
    // Or, if multiple clients access the backend:
    //.setAudience(Arrays.asList(CLIENT_ID_1, CLIENT_ID_2, CLIENT_ID_3))
    .build();

// (Receive idTokenString by HTTPS POST)

GoogleIdToken idToken = verifier.verify(idTokenString);
if (idToken != null) {
  Payload payload = idToken.getPayload();

  // Print user identifier
  String userId = payload.getSubject();
  System.out.println("User ID: " + userId);

  // Get profile information from payload
  String email = payload.getEmail();
  boolean emailVerified = Boolean.valueOf(payload.getEmailVerified());
  String name = (String) payload.get("name");
  String pictureUrl = (String) payload.get("picture");
  String locale = (String) payload.get("locale");
  String familyName = (String) payload.get("family_name");
  String givenName = (String) payload.get("given_name");

  // Use or store profile information
  // ...

} else {
  System.out.println("Invalid ID token.");
}

The GoogleIdTokenVerifier.verify() method verifies the JWT signature, the aud claim, the iss claim, and the exp claim.

If you need to validate that the ID token represents a Google Workspace or Cloud organization account, you can verify the hd claim by checking the domain name returned by the Payload.getHostedDomain() method. The domain of the email claim is insufficient to ensure that the account is managed by a domain or organization.

Node.js

To validate an ID token in Node.js, use the Google Auth Library for Node.js. Install the library: 

npm install google-auth-library --save
 Then, call the verifyIdToken() function. For example:

const {OAuth2Client} = require('google-auth-library');
const client = new OAuth2Client();
async function verify() {
  const ticket = await client.verifyIdToken({
      idToken: token,
      audience: CLIENT_ID,  // Specify the CLIENT_ID of the app that accesses the backend
      // Or, if multiple clients access the backend:
      //[CLIENT_ID_1, CLIENT_ID_2, CLIENT_ID_3]
  });
  const payload = ticket.getPayload();
  const userid = payload['sub'];
  // If the request specified a Google Workspace domain:
  // const domain = payload['hd'];
}
verify().catch(console.error);

The verifyIdToken function verifies the JWT signature, the aud claim, the exp claim, and the iss claim.

If you need to validate that the ID token represents a Google Workspace or Cloud organization account, you can check the hd claim, which indicates the hosted domain of the user. This must be used when restricting access to a resource to only members of certain domains. The absence of this claim indicates that the account does not belong to a Google hosted domain.

PHP

To validate an ID token in PHP, use the Google API Client Library for PHP. Install the library (for example, using Composer): 

composer require google/apiclient
 Then, call the verifyIdToken() function. For example:

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

// Get $id_token via HTTPS POST.

$client = new Google_Client(['client_id' => $CLIENT_ID]);  // Specify the CLIENT_ID of the app that accesses the backend
$payload = $client->verifyIdToken($id_token);
if ($payload) {
  $userid = $payload['sub'];
  // If the request specified a Google Workspace domain
  //$domain = $payload['hd'];
} else {
  // Invalid ID token
}

The verifyIdToken function verifies the JWT signature, the aud claim, the exp claim, and the iss claim.

If you need to validate that the ID token represents a Google Workspace or Cloud organization account, you can check the hd claim, which indicates the hosted domain of the user. This must be used when restricting access to a resource to only members of certain domains. The absence of this claim indicates that the account does not belong to a Google hosted domain.

Python

To validate an ID token in Python, use the verify_oauth2_token function. For example:

from google.oauth2 import id_token
from google.auth.transport import requests

# (Receive token by HTTPS POST)
# ...

try:
    # Specify the CLIENT_ID of the app that accesses the backend:
    idinfo = id_token.verify_oauth2_token(token, requests.Request(), CLIENT_ID)

    # Or, if multiple clients access the backend server:
    # idinfo = id_token.verify_oauth2_token(token, requests.Request())
    # if idinfo['aud'] not in [CLIENT_ID_1, CLIENT_ID_2, CLIENT_ID_3]:
    #     raise ValueError('Could not verify audience.')

    # If the request specified a Google Workspace domain
    # if idinfo['hd'] != DOMAIN_NAME:
    #     raise ValueError('Wrong domain name.')

    # ID token is valid. Get the user's Google Account ID from the decoded token.
    userid = idinfo['sub']
except ValueError:
    # Invalid token
    pass

The verify_oauth2_token function verifies the JWT signature, the aud claim, and the exp claim. You must also verify the hd claim (if applicable) by examining the object that verify_oauth2_token returns. If multiple clients access the backend server, also manually verify the aud claim.

Chiamata all'endpoint tokeninfo

Un modo semplice per convalidare la firma di un token ID per il debug è: usa l'endpoint tokeninfo. La chiamata a questo endpoint prevede un richiesta di rete aggiuntiva che esegue la maggior parte della convalida, mentre la convalida e l’estrazione del payload nel tuo codice. Non è adatto per l'uso in produzione poiché le richieste potrebbero essere limitate o comunque soggette a errori intermittenti.

Per convalidare un token ID utilizzando l'endpoint tokeninfo, crea un protocollo HTTPS POST o GET all'endpoint e trasmetti il token ID id_token. Ad esempio, per convalidare il token "XYZ123", effettua la seguente richiesta GET:

https://oauth2.googleapis.com/tokeninfo?id_token=XYZ123

Se il token è firmato correttamente e iss e exp che le attestazioni hanno i valori previsti, si riceverà una risposta HTTP 200, in cui il corpo contiene le attestazioni dei token ID in formato JSON. Ecco un esempio di risposta:

{
 // These six fields are included in all Google ID Tokens.
 "iss": "https://accounts.google.com",
 "sub": "110169484474386276334",
 "azp": "1008719970978-hb24n2dstb40o45d4feuo2ukqmcc6381.apps.googleusercontent.com",
 "aud": "1008719970978-hb24n2dstb40o45d4feuo2ukqmcc6381.apps.googleusercontent.com",
 "iat": "1433978353",
 "exp": "1433981953",

 // These seven fields are only included when the user has granted the "profile" and
 // "email" OAuth scopes to the application.
 "email": "testuser@gmail.com",
 "email_verified": "true",
 "name" : "Test User",
 "picture": "https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-kYgzyAWpZzJ/ABCDEFGHI/AAAJKLMNOP/tIXL9Ir44LE/s99-c/photo.jpg",
 "given_name": "Test",
 "family_name": "User",
 "locale": "en"
}

Se devi verificare che il token ID rappresenti un account Google Workspace, puoi controllare la rivendicazione hd, che indica il dominio ospitato dell'utente. Deve essere utilizzata quando limitare l'accesso a una risorsa ai soli membri di determinati domini. L'assenza di questa dichiarazione indica che l'account non appartiene a un dominio ospitato da Google Workspace.

Creare un account o una sessione

Dopo aver verificato il token, controlla se l'utente si trova già nel tuo database utenti. In tal caso, stabilisci una sessione autenticata per l'utente. Se l'utente non è ancora presente nel tuo database utenti, crea un nuovo record utente dalle informazioni contenute nel payload del token ID e stabilisci una sessione per l'utente. Puoi richiedere all'utente eventuali informazioni del profilo aggiuntive di cui hai bisogno quando rilevi un nuovo utente nella tua app.
