What are you trying to achieve?

Set up the initial connection

Steps taken so far

Followed the make article to set up the connection, created the oauth credentials etc - when I try to set up the initial connection with google drive I get the :
Access blocked: This app’s request is invalid error

With the details :

Error 400: redirect_uri_mismatch

You can’t sign in to this app because it doesn’t comply with Google’s OAuth 2.0 policy.

If you’re the app developer, register the redirect URI in the Google Cloud Console.
Request details: access_type=offline response_type=code disallow_webview=true redirect_uri=https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/google-restricted state=5f00bc11166a92cd4e19eee8 prompt=consent client_id=108394180654-7aanp7391a9ducjn5dhbmtk9u1avj1pc.apps.googleusercontent.com scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly openid flowName=GeneralOAuthFlow

You need to create a client Id and client secret before you can perform an oath connection that can connect your Google drive account with make.com

Do you know how to go about creating a client Id and client secret?

Follow this main guide on how to set up a custom OAuth 2.0 custom app in Make.

Provided below are additional supplementary instructions in case the above isn’t clear enough.

Enable APIs

1. Enable the relevant APIs that you want to use

Search for the relevant Google API here: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library

  • Go to each API page that you want to use, end click “Enable”

  • Usually you’ll want to enable at least Drive (includes Docs/Sheets) and Gmail.

OAuth Client

Direct Link: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials

2a. Create “OAuth client ID” Credentials

2b. Insert all the Google Redirect URIs for your app

Google Redirect URIs

Here are some commonly-needed redirect URIs you need for your Google Cloud Console OAuth app. If you set these up, you can reuse the same GCP app for other Google apps and modules on Make.

https://www.make.com/oauth/cb/google
https://www.make.com/oauth/cb/google-custom
https://www.make.com/oauth/cb/google-restricted
https://www.make.com/oauth/cb/google-cloud-speech
https://www.make.com/oauth/cb/youtube
https://www.make.com/oauth/cb/oauth2
https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/oauth2

Note: Once you’ve set these up, you can use/reuse the same Make connection for all the supported Google apps & modules on Make - you’ll only have to enable the APIs for your custom app.

OAuth consent screen

Direct Link: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials/consent/edit

3a. Insert Two Authorised Domains

  • Insert make.com and integromat.com

  • Fill in other required fields

  • Click “Save and Continue”.

3b. Add All Scopes

  • Click “Add or Remove Scopes”

  • Select 100 “Rows per page”, for each page, check all the rows, OR

  • Manually type in the scopes you need

  • Click “Update” at the bottom

3c. Step through and go to dashboard

At the last step/page, click “BACK TO DASHBOARD” instead of “Prepare for Verification”

3d. Publish your GCP OAuth2 app

You will need to set your OAuth application to “Production”, otherwise the credentials expire very frequently.

  • To do this, go back to “OAuth consent screen”

  • Then click the “PUBLISH APP” button

  • Then click the “CONFIRM” button

Create New Connection (HTTP, or respective Google module)

You can find the Client ID and Client Secret in the OAuth2 app you created in GCP, on the right-hand side of where you inserted the callback URLs in step 2:

4a. Specific Google module (Sheets, Docs, Drive, Gmail, etc.)

Insert the GCP app client ID and secret here BEFORE clicking “Sign in”

(Gmail example)

OR,

4b. HTTP OAuth 2.0 Request module

708×401 44.2 KB

You need a “Authorize Parameters” key of redirect_uri with the above Make OAuth2 callback URL.
