question

To log in with a Google account, you would use LoginWithGoogleAccount, passing us the user's token.

Cloud Script was designed to be run in response to requests from the Client, though we will be providing a way to schedule Cloud Script calls for Segments in PlayStream shortly.

Could you clarify what you mean when you say you want to create your own login? For example, do you mean you have your own OIDC login system, and you want to use a token from it to sign into PlayFab?

Hi, actually there is second type of google token. Server Auth Code. Something like this...

        platform.GetServerAuthCode((status, authCode) => {
            if (authCode != null) { // this should be success
                lts = LoginTryState.Success;
                serverAuthCode = authCode;
            } else {
                if (status == CommonStatusCodes.Canceled || status == CommonStatusCodes.Interrupted || status == CommonStatusCodes.SignInRequired) {
                    lts = LoginTryState.Failed;
                } else {
                    lts = LoginTryState.Offline;
                }
            }

            Debug.Log("[BackEndManager] " + status + " Auth Code: " + authCode);
        });

Which can be exchanged for access token via https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token. This token is returned by google game services plugin for unity. If you want to get the access token, another set of consent dialogs opens. Which if user denies access you are left logged in into game services but not in playfab(because token is missing).

We had to modify this plugin so its possible to add another permissions to initial login request. The only problem is we have to have external service for exchanging auth code for access token. If play fab would allow to have cloud scripts which can be executed by non authenticated users there would be no need to this type of external custom service. Exchange has to be done on external part because you need to make request to google with client_secret.

Just making sure all the other threads on this topic have the updated info: We do now support the newer Google authentication (ServerAuthCode) process. Please see this post for more information: https://playfab.com/blog/setting-up-google-sign-in/.

Hi, the code that mentioned in article (https://blog.playfab.com/blog/setting-up-google-sign-in) is obsolete. I downloaded latest Google Play Games Plugin 0.9.39a. So far code has to be like this. But Auth code is always empty.

PlayGamesClientConfiguration config = new PlayGamesClientConfiguration.Builder().AddOauthScope("profile").Build();
PlayGamesPlatform.InitializeInstance(config);
PlayGamesPlatform.DebugLogEnabled = true;
PlayGamesPlatform.Activate();

Social.localUser.Authenticate((success) => {
	if(success)
	{
		Debug.Log("Auth was a success!");
		try
		{
			string AuthCode = PlayGamesPlatform.Instance.GetServerAuthCode();


			Debug.LogFormat("AuthCode: {0}", AuthCode);


		}catch(System.Exception e)
		{
			Debug.Log("Error Getting Id Token: " + e.Message);
		}
	}
	else 
	{
		Debug.Log("False");
	}
});

In response to all of these posts and comments.

1> The blog post is not accurate any longer. It is depricated, and google changed the process. @pdaz implementation is correct. But there are a couple other factors you need to consider.

• You must be a tester on the account in google services console
• You must add the "Profile" to the scope .AddOauthScope("profile")
• Call PlayGamesPlatform.Instance.GetServerAuthCode(); after you have used Social.localUser.Authenticate

2> We have updated the official document located here: https://api.playfab.com/docs/tutorials/landing-players/sign-in-with-google and provided a video. Granted the audio is broken, and I am working to make a new video where the audio is working. Might take me a few days to get to it though.
