Question: is Google Cloud Platform token grant rate limit / quota applicable?

ivribalko commented 4 years ago

Hi,

Thank you for the awesome plugin!

We have implemented this plugin for a Google Play Games authentication-only setup where a client Android device is configured to authenticate with RequestIdToken() configuration parameter. Our app currently has status of Verification in progress for OAuth consent screen and our team is struggling to find out whether quotas from OAuth consent screen section in Google Cloud Platform -> APIs & Services are applicable to us.

It says only 100 grants per minute / 10,000 grants per day are allowed which is a limit that is highly likely to be overpassed by our user base when we release the Google Play Games functionality. However despite the fact that our setup works only No data is available for the selected time frame is shown constantly for Your token grant rate section in OAuth consent screen. It would be also very helpful to understand what a grant actually is.

The only issue which seems to be somewhat related is this https://github.com/playgameservices/play-games-plugin-for-unity/issues/2519 however it seems to be referring to the other type of quota.

We would really love users to avoid seeing an error like this or similar and to understand the potential caveats for a smooth release. Any help would be much appreciated.

I don't think this quota is applicable to our service. Why do you need RequestIdToken? How do you plan to use that token in your game?

OK, thank you! I don't know actually how it's used but I believe it's given to the server.

It's better to not use it as this one will require additional consent from user. If you need to check PGS user is on server side then getServerAuthCode is enough
