Description

Google is discontinuing Google Sign-In for their new identity services: https://developers.googleblog.com/2021/08/gsi-jsweb-deprecation.html

The new API seems to be https://developers.google.com/identity this service for signing in. The server side verification requires sending the idToken and the client ID (https://developers.google.com/identity/gsi/web/guides/verify-google-id-token).

Contributor guide

Research direction
