Will not Authenticate GDrive #1077

Open Avpman2 opened 2 months ago

Avpman2 commented 2 months ago

I was setting up a second HA computer, and when I tried to give this addon permission to access my GDrive, I got an error. So I revoked access hoping I could reauthenticate. Now when I try to do a backup from the first computer I get an error. So I tried to re-authenticate. Now I get this not-helpful error from Google when I try:

Something went wrong Sorry, something went wrong there. Try again.

For the moment, forget about the second HA computer. How do I give access back to the add-on?

I'm trying to use this add-on for the first time (fresh install) and facing the same unhelpful Google Auth "Something went wrong"

I had the same problem. I think if I remember correctly, I had to sign out of Google/Gmail and switch to another browser. Memory is foggy.

I tried within a private browser window and it worked, thank you @Avpman2
