Option to limit OAuth permissions?

[jeffreymcclain]

Hi, I am using a free / non-admin Google account, I followed your initial setup instructions listed here. However, when performing the "First-time authentication" step, I was a bit concerned about the permissions that your module requests.

I am sure your module is legitimate, but would it be possible to only grant specific permissions related to my use case? For example, I literally only want to read data from Google Sheets, so for the OAuth consent screen part of the instructions, I only added spreadsheets readonly rather than everything. However, for the "first-time authentication" step, I don't see an option to only grant said permission (it's not even in the list).

edit: Manually editing the generated url scope to "&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fspreadsheets.readonly" worked.

Those are all the permissions the project has, the link in that guide will enable all those APIs by default. If you go to the Dashboard for that project, at the bottom will be a list of APIs, you can click through to those and disable them. Otherwise you can make a new project from the console and only enable the APIs you want.

Thanks for the tip, I'll remove the other APIs manually for now and create a clean project later.
