I'm setting up google analytics super proxy to create some public queries on my google analytics data. I have followed the instructions given in the below link to setup a analytics super proxy in app engine:
https://developers.google.com/analytics/solutions/google-analytics-super-proxy
I have followed the steps specified, enabling access for analytics api and creating a client ID for the super proxy web application deployed in app engine. I updated the required properties in the app.yaml and config.py files in the super proxy and deployed it to app engine.
I'm able to open the admin page of the deployed super proxy, but when I try to authorize access, I get the an error saying 'invalid_client' (although the client id seems to match with the one I created in developer console):
I'm unable to figure out what has gone wrong, or if I've missed something? Can you please help?
Regards,
Anand
Go to the Dev Console -> Your Project -> APIs & auth -> Consent screen. Make sure all the non optional fields are filed in (specifically in your case PRODUCT NAME).

I have been using the Google App Engine Launcher's "Deploy" button. I realize that the Launcher is going away at the end of July 2020, so I'm trying to learn to use gcloud. My web site has a custom url, www.xxx.org, but "gcloud app deploy" uploads to xxx.appspot.com instead of to www.xxx.org, presumably because "target url" is set to xxx.appspot.com. Can someone please tell me what gcloud command I need to use to change "target url" to www.xxx.org, or some other scheme that would work? I've wandered through lots of gcloud and GAE documentation and web searches without being able to figure out what I need to do.
There is a very good and complete guide about mapping a custom domain to your application in the official documentation. As #DanCornilescu said,it needs to be configured, but it is not necessary to be done before deployment.
Basically, you need to follow the steps from the guide:
1) Verify that you are the owner of your domain through Webmaster
Central
2)Ensure that your domain has been verified, otherwise you will not be able to proceed with the following steps. Note that only verified domains will be displayed.
3)If you need to delegate the ownership of your domain to other users or service accounts, you can add permission through the Webmaster Central page
4)After you verify ownership of your domain, you can map that domain to your App Engine app
5)Add the resource records that you receive to the DNS configuration of your domain registrar
6)Test for success by browsing to your app via its new domain URL, for example www.example.com
In case you need to do more complex mappings for different urls and subdomains you can always write down the routing rules in the dispatch.yaml file and they will be mapped successfully.
Also, to add a bit more of information about the dipatch.yaml file, it will handle the routing in the App as opposed with the app.yaml which will take care of the App's settings. Both .yamls can exist in the same application and can be deployed at the same time by using the following gcloud command:
gcloud app deploy app.yaml dispatch.yaml
The deployment is always done to .appspot.com, the custom domain is automatically updated if it is already configured. If it is not then it needs to be configured (it can be done after the deployment as well).
I have deployed a Java Web application on Google Cloud platform and have purchased a domain and SSL Certificate from GoDaddy.com.
Its a simple application with a login page and a registration, where a specific(only one user) will have login credentials and post login will submit a form which will be saved in google DATASTORE in Google Cloud Platform(GCP).
I have two queries here :
1)
My application works perfectly,on my machine and even few machines around my home (as i have verified in few cyber centres around) but not at a client place located in different city(150 miles away). I'm not sure,as the client is not running any firewall or any browser plugin, as i have not visited the client place yet.
The call is as below.
Domain purchased from godaddy.com is : "ABC.in"
App engine project linked to this domain is : "web-abc"
If we hit "ABC.in" in browser it will in-turn call "web-abc.appspot.com".
in the background.Now though the login page loads,the client complains that the next subsequent pages does not load and page becomes blank.But for me in my system it works perfectly,as i can see the updated DATASTORE in GCP.
2)
Once i configure my DNS at GoDaddy.com, i'm unable to make any changes to the project hosted on GCP app engine.So i decided to create a new project and host it on the GCP. But GCP app engine page does not show any option to replace a project as it showed me during my first project setup.
I need to replace project "web-abc" linked to "ABC.in" with "web-pqr".
Please Please help...!
Thanks
To answer your second query you can just rest your CNAME record in the GODADDY DNS configuration and add the web-pqr reqq. That should work. Rest of the question< i really don't get it. Please share some error message or the screenshot when you try make change to your exiting project.
I have a project in Google Cloud, with Google Compute Engine APIs activated.
The problem is that the "Compute Engine and App Engine" credential field is completely missing from "Developers Console -> APIs & auth -> Credentials". I have not been able to find any document explaining how to generate it, probably because as I read from unofficial sources, it's done automatically.
Because of this missing credential, I'm stuck at the authentication phase and cannot use the services I need, so, how can I solve this problem?
So, you are looking for credentials which looks like:
CLIENT ID 1234.apps.googleusercontent.com
EMAIL ADDRESS 1234#developer.gserviceaccount.com
Try to go to "Overview" section and look for:
Project ID: bla-bla Project Number: 1234
Where instead of 1234 you should see your project number. If it will not work -- go to appengine.google.com, select your app, Application Settings and try to create Cloud Integration.
I think it is a google cloud product issuse , contact google support .
I believe there is an undocumented Google API available to create and manage Google Cloud Console (and App Engine) projects on behalf of third party users.
Does anyone know how to use it?
I think older versions of the Google Eclipse Plugin obtained an OAuth2 token in the (undocumented) scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/appengine.admin, and this allowed it to generate a Cloud Console project on your behalf. The latest version doesn't seem to do this. App Engine's own appcfg.py also uses this scope, but doesn't seem to do much more than deploy the code - I'm looking to change core settings for the project, such as Name, Redirect URLs, and Web Origins.
Any information would be appreciated.
I maintain a WordPress plugin providing secure Google Apps Login for end users, and currently have to give detailed instructions to admins for creating a new Cloud Console project manually, and entering settings such as Redirect URL. Ideally, I would create a simple on-line service to do all of this for them.
Thank you!
It is possible to programmatically create a new Developer Console project on behalf of a Google Account (yes, you read that right). You do so in a very roundabout way:
Request the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.scripts scope from the user (standard OAuth 2.0 flow).
Use the Drive API's drive.insert method to create a new file with a mimetype of application/vnd.google-apps.script.
Somehow try to get the project ID, maybe by uploading some Apps Script code? This is the part that I was never able to figure out.
A little known fact is that every Google Apps Script project has a hidden Developer Console project associated with it. This project is not shown in the list of projects, but it does exist. It is created automatically when the user starts a new Apps Script project, and the drive.insert method is enough to cause this to happen.
How do you get to the hidden project? Well, the only way I know of is to open the Apps Script project from the Drive website, open the "Resources > Advanced Google Services" dialog, and click the link to the Developer Console. You'll find the project ID in the URL.
Aside from not being shown in your list of projects and not being able to use App Engine, this is a normal Developer Console project. You can add additional OAuth client credentials, service accounts, Compute Engine instances, etc. And of course once you have a project ID, all of the various management APIs will work: creating new virtual machines, making use of a service account's impersonation ability, etc.
I followed the steps detailed here to use a custom domain with google app engine.
I'm the admin of the Google Apps account
I'm the owner of the Google App Engine account
I've added the domain to my Google Apps account through my App Engine account
I see my App Engine app in my Google Apps account
I set the CNAME "test" to point to ghs.googlehosted.com
I added the web address under my Google Apps account and it says "Your users can access my-app-id at: test.mydomain.com
Now when I go to http://test.mydomain.com, it redirects to https://test.mydomain.com and I get an SSL connection error (Unable to make a secure connection to the server.)
I called Google Apps customer support because I have a paid business account, but the customer service guy said that this falls under App Engine support and he was not trained in this issue.
Help!
If you've done everything correctly, you should be able to access your site at http://test.mydomain.com. It sounds from the error you're getting that you're attempting to access it at https://test.mydomain.com (https as opposed to http).
If you want to access your app over SSL at your custom domain, you have more setup to do, as documented here: SSL for a Custom Domain. The steps necessary are many and subject to change; that link is the official source of current information on the matter.
Update: From your updated information, it sounds like you may have secure: always set in your app.yaml, or the Java-configuration equivalent of this setting. It would be helpful if you posted your configuration file.
Also note that it takes several minutes for Google to add a certificate on a domain you recently imported (it may require time for DNS configuration to spread). I personally didn't need to add any secure: configuration, it just worked after some time.
