I'm trying to connect my Google Drive node but encounter errors during the sign-in process, even though I've already set up the client ID.
I simply need to sign in to my Google account to continue, yet I keep getting an error.
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? See the screenshot for reference:

Based on common issues with the Google Drive node, the error you're seeing is often tied to a mismatch in URLs between Google's OAuth configuration and your n8n instance. Here are some steps to troubleshoot and resolve this issue:
-
Review the Error Message:
Google's error usually includes details—check for any hints about URL mismatches or security requirements that the app isn't meeting. -
Verify OAuth Redirect URLs:
Make sure that the OAuth redirect URLs set in your Google API console exactly match those being used by n8n. If you're self-hosting n8n, ensure that the environment variables:- N8N_EDITOR_BASE_URL
- WEBHOOK_URL
are both set to fully qualified domains that correspond to your actual setup.
-
Check Client ID Configuration:
Confirm that your Client ID is correctly set up in the Google Cloud Console and properly integrated into your n8n credential configuration.
By ensuring that the URLs and client configuration are aligned between your n8n instance and Google’s OAuth settings, you should be able to resolve the sign-in error.
