openid
Then in Google’s Cloud Platform, go to Credentials and click on the name of your OAuth 2.0 Client ID:
In Authorized Redirect URIs, add the following Redirect URI. The {base-domain} can be found in Settings. For example, in the following screenshot, the base domain would be app.airkit.com.
[block:callout] { "type": "info", "title": "Redirect URIs", "body": "\nhttps://{base-domain}/internal/session-gateway/v1/oauth/callback" } [/block]
