# Google Tutorial
This is a quick tutorial on how to configure Google authentication.
## Quick setup with Igniter
The fastest way to add Google authentication is with the Igniter generator:
```bash
mix ash_authentication.add_strategy google
```
This creates the UserIdentity resource, register action, secrets wiring, and strategy DSL for you. Follow the printed instructions to create your Google OAuth Client and set the required environment variables. The rest of this tutorial covers manual setup.
## Manual setup
First you'll need a registered application in [Google Cloud](https://console.cloud.google.com/welcome), in order to get your OAuth 2.0 Client credentials.
1. On the Cloud's console **Quick access** section select **APIs & Services**, then **Credentials**
2. Click on **+ CREATE CREDENTIALS** and from the dropdown select **OAuth client ID**
3. From the google developers console, we will need: `client_id` & `client_secret`
4. Enter your callback uri under **Authorized redirect URIs**. E.g. `http://localhost:4000/auth/user/google/callback`.
Next we configure our resource to use google credentials:
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Accounts.User do
use Ash.Resource,
extensions: [AshAuthentication],
domain: MyApp.Accounts
attributes do
...
end
authentication do
strategies do
google do
client_id MyApp.Secrets
redirect_uri MyApp.Secrets
client_secret MyApp.Secrets
end
end
end
end
```
Please check the [guide](https://hexdocs.pm/ash_authentication/AshAuthentication.Secret.html) on how to properly configure your Secrets.
Then we need to define an action that will handle the oauth2 flow, for the google case it is `:register_with_google` it will handle both cases for our resource, user registration & login.
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Accounts.User do
require Ash.Resource.Change.Builtins
use Ash.Resource,
extensions: [AshAuthentication],
domain: MyApp.Accounts
# ...
actions do
create :register_with_google do
argument :user_info, :map, allow_nil?: false
argument :oauth_tokens, :map, allow_nil?: false
upsert? true
upsert_identity :unique_email
change AshAuthentication.GenerateTokenChange
# Required if you have the `identity_resource` configuration enabled.
change AshAuthentication.Strategy.OAuth2.IdentityChange
change {AshAuthentication.Strategy.OAuth2.UserInfoToAttributes, fields: [:email]}
# Required if you're using the password & confirmation strategies
upsert_fields []
change set_attribute(:confirmed_at, &DateTime.utc_now/0)
end
end
# ...
end
```
Ensure you set the `hashed_password` to `allow_nil?` if you are also using the password strategy.
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Accounts.User do
# ...
attributes do
# ...
attribute :hashed_password, :string, allow_nil?: true, sensitive?: true
end
# ...
end
```
And generate and run migrations in that case.
```bash
mix ash.codegen make_hashed_password_nullable
mix ash.migrate
```
