Like most people, I have created a Google app to connect my automations to Google’s tools.
The app in test mode constantly loses authentication. Putting it in live mode doesn’t help.
I started the verication process but the last step asks to send a YouTube video showing every use case of the app. That’s impossible, I have several automations and will build dozens more.
Did you validate your app? Did you find a workaround?
In my case
Use the google oauth on my own account.
Turn to production without verify.
The Google Token can last forever. No need to re-auth again.
What kind of the issue you facing?
Thanks but I don’t see any parameter beyond Client ID and secret
Yes, I’ve been through this. Google’s OAuth verification can be a pain, especially with multiple automations. What worked for me was focusing on the core use cases in the video — I didn’t cover every automation, just representative ones that showed scopes in use. Keep it short and clear.
If you’re not requesting sensitive scopes, you might get by without full verification by limiting user count and keeping the app internal. But if it’s public or uses restricted scopes, verification is hard to avoid.
I understand. I enabled all the scopes for convenience. Maybe I should remove the sensitive ones I didn’t use.
That’s exactly what I did. The token expires.
