Instructions followed exactly still lead to errors (even if Google+ API is enabled)

[exportio]

You must enable Google+ API and then create credentials for that API before it will work. Otherwise, you will get the error below.

An unhandled exception occurred while processing the request.
HttpRequestException: An error occurred when retrieving Google user information (Forbidden). Please check if the authentication information is correct and the corresponding Google+ API is enabled.
Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.Google.GoogleHandler.CreateTicketAsync(ClaimsIdentity identity, AuthenticationProperties properties, OAuthTokenResponse tokens)

Exception: An error was encountered while handling the remote login.
Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.RemoteAuthenticationHandler<TOptions>.HandleRequestAsync()

I'll also add this to the tracking issue for a look 👀. #1470

... something else came to mind. There was some talk of Google+ auth changing ... depreciated? We should track down that engineering issue and see what's what.

With google+ I have the code in c#. Is there a c# version for the new google authentication

[guardrex]

There was some talk about that approach on that issue. I think the issue was in aspnet/AspNetCore repo issues, but I'm not 100% sure about that. It might be elsewhere in the engineering repos. The issue discusses the depreciation of Google+ and some alternative ways to deal with Google auth.

I'm 🏃 at the moment and can't look, but I'll come back later and see if I can find that issue and post the link here.

@GBPhilip Found it! (actually, it wasn't that hard to track down ... it was in the aspnet/AspNetCore repo issues). See ......

Thanks, now I need to work out how to make sure I google + api so when I test it I know it is going to the right place.

It's in the first paragraph.
