Integrate Google OAuth 2.0 as an authentication option on the platform. Upon successful integration, users should be able to select Sign in with Google, authenticate via their Google account, and gain access to the application without needing a separate username or password.
Key Requirements
Configure Google OAuth 2.0 with the application's client ID and secret.
Add a Sign in with Google button to the authentication page.
Redirect the user to the appropriate Google authentication page and handle the authorization response.
Store and manage user session data securely post-authentication.
Use Case
Quick Registration: New users can sign up instantly with Google, bypassing form-filling.
Single Sign-On: Existing users can access their accounts easily without entering a password.
Multi-Device Access: Users experience consistent, seamless sign-in across all their devices.
Benefits
Enhanced User Experience: Faster, easier sign-in increases engagement and retention.
Increased Security: Google OAuth 2.0 offers strong security, including multi-factor authentication.
Lower Maintenance: Fewer password resets and support requests, simplifying account management.
