Google Auth - Error 400: invalid_requiest

Support Plexguide Support
#1

What Operating System?

Ubuntu 18.04

What is the problem?

If I try to set a label and I put the google URL on the Browser I got the message:
Error 400: invalid_request

You can’t sign in to this app because it doesn’t comply with Google’s OAuth 2.0 policy for keeping apps secure.

If you’re the app developer, make sure that these request details comply with Google policies.

  • redirect_uri: urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob

What did you already try to solve it?

I tried to deploy a new OAuth 2.0 Client ID, it doesn’t help.

There isn’t a problem on the server side.

Has anyone got a working fix yet, my plex server had to be reinstalled and using the PTS and original plexdrive app, I have this issue.

Error 400

in another thread there is a fix… copied as below…

If you ssh into your machine and type “gcloud init --console-only”, it will let you sign into your account without the web browser installed. From there you can go back into pts setup and continue as usual.

#6

Yes that should do the trick:

  1. Run the following commands, one at a time:
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates gnupg

echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg] https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt cloud-sdk main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-cloud-sdk.list

curl https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key --keyring /usr/share/keyrings/cloud.google.gpg add -

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-cloud-sdk -y
  1. Run the following command:
gcloud init --console-only

Follow the prompts:

Welcome! This command will take you through the configuration of gcloud.

...

You must log in to continue. Would you like to log in (Y/n)?  Y

Go to the following link in your browser:

https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?response_type=code&client_id=32...X4&code_challenge_method=S256
  1. Log into your Google account and approve the access request:

Every 7 days i need to refresh my tokens trough PG menu, and i havent figured out to get around this - very frustrating :frowning:

Tried alle solutions in this thread, i did get pass to not being able to access my google drives at all, by changing the API scopes suggested, but it still needs me to refresh my tokens.

Any ideas or help would be very welcome? :slight_smile:

Has anyone managed to get this working, I’ve tried with the scope changes, as well as using the “gcloud init --console-only” token but no luck, getting the below error

Getting this error too out of the blue. And probably breaking it all worse trying to fix it.

#10

the only way so far. that i have tested that works. if either. just runing gcloud init --console-only on it’s own. seem to work. or if you reconfig the remotes. you will need another linux server. or install linux vm on windows 10.which can be done in the app store.other wise you will need to install a VM on your machine. then all you run on the other machine. it will ask something like rclone authorize "drive" " a lot of crap here that you need to also copy"

#13

Is there any further advice?

I have successfully followed the steps above, and connected to my Google account successfully, but I’m still getting the error 400. Is there another way to configure rClone?

#14

I can’t find the way, nobody in this group knows anything?
