I'm having trouble adding the Sign in with Google
button in my Android debug build. I'm encountering two specific issues:
SignInWithGoogleOption
, I get the error activity is cancelled by the user
even though that's not the case.GoogleIdOption
, I receive the error During begin sign in, failure response from one tap: 10: [28444] Developer console is not set up correctly (android.credentials.GetCredentialException.TYPE_NO_CREDENTIAL)
.I run the app from Android Studio using the debug variant with the package name com.example.name.debug
.
I have tried the following steps based on suggestions from other SO answers:
com.example.name.debug
and com.example.name
(both set as Android types) and set the variable webClientId
to the Web Application type client ID..jks
file and that their SHA1 fingerprints match../gradlew signingreport
matches the one registered in the Google Cloud Console.Here are my dependencies and code snippets:
GROOVYimplementation "androidx.credentials:credentials:1.3.0" implementation "androidx.credentials:credentials-play-services-auth:1.3.0" implementation "com.google.android.libraries.identity.googleid:googleid:1.1.1"
KOTLINval webClientId = "" val signInWithGoogleOption = GetSignInWithGoogleOption.Builder(webClientId) .build() val googleIdOption = GetGoogleIdOption.Builder() .setFilterByAuthorizedAccounts(false) .setServerClientId(webClientId) .build() val request = GetCredentialRequest.Builder() .addCredentialOption(googleIdOption) //.addCredentialOption(signInWithGoogleOption) .build() val credentialManager = CredentialManager.create(this@MainActivity) lifecycleScope.launch { try { val result = credentialManager.getCredential(this@MainActivity, request) handleSignIn(result) } catch (e: GetCredentialException) { Log.e("handleSignIn", e.message.toString()) } }
I would appreciate any insights or suggestions on what else to try.

Below are several areas you can check or try to resolve the issue:
Even though you’ve set up OAuth client IDs for your Android builds, the code is using a web client ID (passed as webClientId to both builders). Make sure that:
For example, update your code to use the actual client ID:
KOTLINval webClientId = "YOUR_WEB_CLIENT_ID.apps.googleusercontent.com"
Even if you checked these already, it’s good to verify:
Ensure that you have:
Misconfigured consent screens can lead to messages suggesting the developer console isn’t set up correctly.
You currently have commented out the call to add SignInWithGoogleOption to the GetCredentialRequest. While using GoogleIdOption alone is valid, sometimes including SignInWithGoogleOption helps in processing the request flow. Consider trying:
KOTLINval request = GetCredentialRequest.Builder() .addCredentialOption(googleIdOption) .addCredentialOption(signInWithGoogleOption) .build()
This may change the behavior and help pinpoint if one or both flows are misconfigured.
Sometimes changes in credentials or manifest settings aren’t picked up immediately:
Finally, ensure that the device or emulator has updated Google Play Services since the credentials flow depends on these libraries being current.
By verifying these configuration details and updating your request to include both options, you should be able to pinpoint the misconfiguration in your developer console setup. If problems persist, checking detailed logcat output or even regenerating OAuth credentials (and allowing a few minutes for propagation) may help resolve the error.

Root cause could be an incorrect combination of OAuth 2.0 Client IDs (Web/Android) and SHA-1 keys or IDs already used by other apps. To avoid conflict, generate new OAuth 2.0 Client IDs and follow the setup guide. Using the latest dependency version 1.5.0-rc01 might help too.
activity is cancelled by the user
While seemingly user-related, this is caused by incorrect Client ID usage.
Developer console is not set up correctly
There are different causes of this error which are not immediately clear to the developer including incorrect SHA-1 key, missing release APK, console configuration error such as using a web client instead of an android client and vice versa.
Try to copy the correct SHA1 fingerprint (from ./gradlew signingreport
) of correct Variant
and Config
from the terminal console and configure the same in the cloud console for your app's Android OAuth2 client
.
Steps to perform:
Android OAuth2 client
in the Cloud API console with your app's package name.Web OAuth2 client
in the Cloud API console. This will act as the server for your app.setServerClientId(webClientID)
in your integration.Android OAuth2 client
with release key's SHA-1 fingerprint for production, and for recognizing this client, can give it a name "Your-app-release"Credits to @Manishoaham for providing steps from this post.
