App Verification on Google for OAuth 2.0

[julianschmuckli]

Hello everyone

I recently made an app with a Google OAuth login. Since Google launched a verification process, you have to submit your app before officially launching it. Otherwise the user would see a screen that the app is not verified which looks really untrustworthy.

The form to do the verification is here: https://support.google.com/code/contact/oauth_app_verification

I submitted my app. But now Google wants that I have to verify that I'm the owner of the redirect url: https://app-settings.fitbitdevelopercontent.com/simple-redirect.html. This is of course not the case. But according to the Fitbit docs I have to set the redirect URL to this. 

So what should I do? Or is there an other form of verification for systems like Fitbit OS?

Thank you in advance.

Julian

Sorry, there's no way to prove ownership for those domains.

If you need to prove ownership, you'll need to do this via your own server/domain which you can control. You should be able to use the <WebConfig> component for this. You'll find some examples here or on Discord.

Hi Jon,

What do you mean with the WebConfig component? Can you give me an example, because I didn't find anything on Discord?

Many thanks.
