Overview

Configuring Supabase authentication with Google OAuth involves several important steps to make sure user logins are secure and integration is smooth. Start by setting up a project in the Google Developers Console to grab your Client ID and Client Secret. Next, head over to the Supabase dashboard and plug in these credentials for the authentication provider. Also, be sure to tweak your authentication settings and align your redirect URIs with your needs. If everything's set up right, users can log in seamlessly using their Google accounts, making your Supabase-powered app super user-friendly.

Step 2: Enable Google OAuth in Supabase

  1. In your Supabase project dashboard, go to the "Auth" section.
  2. Click on the "Providers" tab.
  3. Find "Google" in the list of OAuth providers and flip the "Enable" toggle.

Step 3: Configure Google API Credentials

  1. Go to the Google Cloud Console.
  2. Create a new project if you don't have one already.
  3. Navigate to the "API & Services" section, then go to "Credentials".
  4. Click the "Create Credentials" button and choose "OAuth client ID".
  5. If you haven't already, configure your OAuth consent screen.
  6. Set the application type to "Web application".
  7. Configure your OAuth credentials with these settings:
  • Authorized JavaScript origins: Add your Supabase project URL (e.g., https://[your-project-ref].supabase.co).
  • Authorized redirect URIs: Add https://[your-project-ref].supabase.co/auth/v1/callback.

Step 4: Obtain Client ID and Client Secret

  1. After creating the OAuth credentials, you'll see your Client ID and Client Secret.
  2. Copy both values for the next step.

Step 5: Configure Supabase with Google OAuth Credentials

  1. Go back to your Supabase project dashboard.
  2. In the "Auth" section under the "Providers" tab, find Google again.
  3. Paste the Client ID and Client Secret you copied from the Google Cloud Console.
  4. Click "Save" to store your settings.

Step 6: Test Authentication

  1. Go to the "Authentication" section in your Supabase dashboard.
  2. Click "User Management" to see the users list.
  3. Visit your Supabase project URL and try to sign in with Google.
  4. Check that the Google sign-in works and that new users show up in Supabase under "User Management".

Step 7: Implement Google OAuth in Your Application

  1. Use the Supabase JavaScript client to start Google OAuth login.

  2. In your frontend script, set up Supabase with your project URL and public API key:
    ```javascript
    import { createClient } from '@supabase/supabase-js';

    const supabaseUrl = 'https://[your-project-ref].supabase.co';
    const supabaseKey = 'your-anon-public-key';
    const supabase = createClient(supabaseUrl, supabaseKey);
    ```

  3. Implement the login function:
    ```javascript
    const { user, session, error } = await supabase.auth.signIn({
    provider: 'google'
    });
    ```

  4. Handle the authentication response and redirect users accordingly.

And there you have it! Your Supabase authentication with Google OAuth should be all set up and ready to go.
