Configuring Sign-In with Google

Google Sign-In Integration requires a Google Developer Project and API credentials. You can create this using your existing Google account. Users will only see the app name you define and will not see anything relating to the account you use to create the project.

To do this:

  1. Visit https://console.developers.google.com/.
  2. Log in to your Google account.
    Changing the Google account you use to create the app requires users to reauthenticate and relink their accounts.
  3. Choose Select a project on the top menu.

  29. Select Activate under the Google heading.
  30. Enter your Google Client ID and Client Secret.
  31. Click Save & Activate.

WHMCS will attempt to validate the details you have entered. If the client ID and secret are valid and successfully authenticate with the Google API, the values will be saved.
