Hello, I’m very new into this, but when I’m creating the google drive credentials to setup the OAuth2, n8n doesn’t give me the link. It always shows like this only: ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/n8n/original/3X/0/a/0ad962a63fd84e6d1029a922dd8f732cf0fb4cd0.png) ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/n8n/original/3X/7/d/7d4512de241c8b5fd132bfa9637011e21de37f9a.png) ---

@Ericks_Dalboni You are a n8n cloud user and you will not get this kind of window in the latest versions: > **[OAuth2 and Service Account - Google credentials | n8n Docs](https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/builtin/credentials/google/#oauth2-and-service-account)** > > This section contains: | Documentation for Google credentials. Use these credentials to authenticate Google in n8n, a workflow automation platform. ---
