Package com.google.api.client.googleapis.auth.oauth2 Description

Google's additions to OAuth 2.0 authorization as specified in Using OAuth 2.0 to Access Google APIs.

Before using this library, you must register your application at the APIs Console. The result of this registration process is a set of values that are known to both Google and your application, such as the "Client ID", "Client Secret", and "Redirect URIs".

These are the typical steps of the web server flow based on an authorization code, as specified in Using OAuth 2.0 for Web Server Applications:

Redirect the end user in the browser to the authorization page using GoogleAuthorizationCodeRequestUrl to grant your application access to the end user's protected data.
Process the authorization response using AuthorizationCodeResponseUrl to parse the authorization code.
Request an access token and possibly a refresh token using GoogleAuthorizationCodeTokenRequest.
Access protected resources using GoogleCredential. Expired access tokens will automatically be refreshed using the refresh token (if applicable).

These are the typical steps of the the browser-based client flow specified in Using OAuth 2.0 for Client-side Applications:

Redirect the end user in the browser to the authorization page using GoogleBrowserClientRequestUrl to grant your browser application access to the end user's protected data.
Use the Google API Client library for JavaScript to process the access token found in the URL fragment at the redirect URI registered at the APIs Console.

Warning: this package is experimental, and its content may be changed in incompatible ways or possibly entirely removed in a future version of the library.
