Google Keep Authentication Failure #75

Closed nobodyawesomer closed 5 years ago

nobodyawesomer commented 5 years ago

Applicationize doesn't work with Google Keep, when opening the app all I see is:

googlekeep Error 401

Steps to reproduce: Regular steps to create an app, with https://keep.google.com/

Seems to work for me: screen shot 2018-11-14 at 11 54 43 am

Also logging in works and all my notes are displayed.

Are you using any proxy of some sort?

nobodyawesomer commented 5 years ago

No proxy or VPN on.

I just, by accident, found a somewhat weird solution:

If I regularly clicked on the app from my chrome://apps menu, it didn't work and gave me the previous Error 401. But if I command+clicked on it (chrome keyboard shortcut for open in new tab), it opened regularly and showed me the google login screen. Now I'm logged in, I can now reopen regularly and it works fine.

Seems like strange behavior to me, any ideas why that might be happening? Just out of curiosity.

@AwesomeAlexander That's really strange. Maybe Chrome was using cached resources, cookies, and other session data that was preventing Google Keep from working properly, but when using Cmd + Click it cleared that session data.

Glad you got it working!
