@ZYinMD I believe this is expected behavior, as we do disable browser sign in. Any calls made to GAIA are non-routable
@jumde can you confirm?

Confirmed. GAIA is unavailable in Brave in any context.
Thanks!
Hi, just wondering if there is an alternative please?
If I can't use GAIA chrome.identity.getAuthToken() in my extension, but still want to offer Google Auth, how can I do this please?
Thanks
Quick update - @jumde is looking at getting some of this functionality working in Brave (put behind a flag of course)
@jumde @bsclifton any update on this pls? We are looking to provide Google Auth via chrome extn on brave.
Hi @ss87codes - You should be able to use this api by enabling Allow Google login for extensions
in brave://settings/extensions
. If you are running into any issues, let us know.
Thank you @jumde
@jumde I have enabled Google sign in
but each time extension calls chrome.identity.getAuthToken
, browser asks me reauthenticate with my Google email and password. Even after this I am getting
The user is not signed in.
error.
Reset Brave, after that I am getting
OAuth2 not granted or revoked.
error when calling chrome.identity.getAuthToken
in non-interactive mode (instead of The user is not signed in.
, which is better of course). But chrome.identity.getAuthToken
in interactive: true
mode is hanging and not returning response, anything.
After that restarted Brave one more time - and it worked! chrome.identity.getAuthToken
in interactive mode let me chose account and returned valid token, then extension worked.
@kospl - We noticed an issue in the recent builds a few days back: https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/14041 - we are working on a fix.
Any update on this?
@MoeBazziGIT - Update here: https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/15754#issuecomment-920514585
We haven't found any extensions where chrome.identity
API is used with 3p Google APIs. So we've paused the work here: https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/10103

We haven't found any extensions where

API is used with 3p Google APIs. So we've paused the work here: brave/brave-core#10103
Writing in to let you know that our browser extension does use other oauth scopes with the identity api. We request gmail.readonly and gmail.modify and have been approved by Google.
@dcow I believe the chrome.identity
patches recommended by upstream have been pulled in. If extensions support 3p identity, it should work

UPDATE: here we go - found it - https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/15754 Fixed with https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/14069
@bsclifton neat I'll test our extension out on Brave. Came across this thread in a discussion with another chrome-embedder's team about supporting the identity api and it wasn't clear what the resolution was here. Thanks for the update!
I have extension working in chrome using chrome.identity.getAuthToken
specifically https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/how-to/integrate/oauth case but when I call it in Brave I get
Access blocked: <Name> request is invalid.
Error 400: invalid_request
Custom URI scheme is not supported on Chrome apps.
Is this not supported?
edit: just saw this https://github.com/GoogleChrome/developer.chrome.com/issues/7434#issuecomment-1794989184 wonder if it is still applicable.
Hi! Have the same problem as @zereraz here.
We are using Chrome Identity API in our extension (chrome.identity.getAuthToken()
), but Brave seem to still send redirect URL with the custom URI scheme, which is no longer supported by Google
The "Allow Google login in extensions" setting doesn't make any difference
You can replicate with our Meeting Timer for Google Meet extension
Please consider reopening the issue
Description
I'm a chrome extension developer. In my extension I call
chrome.identity.getAuthToken()
to do oAuth, this normally pops up a sign-in window in Chrome. The identity API is what made oAuth possible in extensions. However, in Brave, the popup doesn't appear, and in the console it showsUnchecked runtime.lastError: The user turned off browser signin
.So is
chrome.identity
supported in Brave?Steps to Reproduce
chrome.identity.getAuthToken()
in an extension. (if you want to try with an existing extension, try the extension "Full Screen for Google Tasks".Actual result:
No oAuth window appears. In the console it shows
Unchecked runtime.lastError: The user turned off browser signin
.Expected result:
oAuth window appears.
