When connecting to Blogger, I get this error

“When connecting to Blogger, I get this error, and my blog doesn’t appear. How can I fix this?”

error code
429 (rateLimitExceeded): Quota exceeded for quota metric ‘Queries’ and limit ‘Queries per day’ of service ‘blogger.googleapis.com’ for consumer ‘project_number:408604349651’.

Did you create a GCP project and use the “Advanced Settings” when Adding your connection?

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


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

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

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

P.S.: Investing some effort into the Make Academy will save you lots of time and frustration using Make.

I used to be able to connect to Google with Gmail just by clicking a button. However, after this issue occurred, I tried logging into Gmail using OAuth consent, a client ID, and a client secret, but I still couldn’t access Gmail, as shown in the screenshot above. The same error message appears for Blogger as well.

In this case, I can’t tell whether I misconfigured something or if it’s due to exceeding the quota. If the quota has been exceeded, how can I increase it in GCP?

If you’re trying to connect with a client ID and a client secret, then you’ve probably configured something incorrectly somewhere.

Try to delete and follow the above instructions again.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

When adding scopes (Select Scopes), which ones should I choose? I’m not sure if I should select all of them.

The URI issuance method you provided is for Gmail, right?


I am currently using this as the URI for my Gmail client.
