Oauth2.0 approval_prompt = force

[vtsao]

Hello All,

I am not seeing approval_prompt option under Oauth2.0 authentication which can enable user to approve appllication request every time he logged in with google account.

For more info please see this forum question:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/adwords-api/oauth2.0/adwords-api/GTClxukrLCE/GdO1bRsGkWkJ

No option for this under PHP Client library v201306.

Thanks,
Chirag

Hi Chirag,

Thank you for your feature request. For the a quick workaround, I suggest you edit your copy of the OAuth2Handler.php to add the following:

Edit the GetAuthorizationUrl.php function to update the $params array as follows:

$params = array_merge($params, array(
    'response_type' => 'code',
    'client_id' => $credentials['client_id'],
    'redirect_uri' => $redirectUri,
    'scope' => $this->scope,
    'access_type' => $offline ? 'offline' : 'online',
    'approval_prompt' => 'force',
));

File path:
/src/Google/Api/Ads/Common/OAuth2Handler.php

See the link below for the current version:

https://code.google.com/p/google-api-adwords-php/source/browse/src/Google/Api/Ads/Common/Util/OAuth2Handler.php#59

  Hello Paul,

Yes, I dont wants to disturb API. So i have done this when getting to authorization Url by adding extra param.

    $offline = TRUE;
$extra_para = array('approval_prompt' => 'force');
$OAuth2Handler = $user->GetOAuth2Handler();
$authorizationUrl = $OAuth2Handler->GetAuthorizationUrl($user->GetOAuth2Info(), $redirectUri, $offline, $extra_para);

I have one more Question under enhancement.
I am not getting any user information by calling Oauth 2.0. For e.g. user email.
For this i need to add any other scope. So how i can add other scopes?

Thanks,
Chirag

We're looking into adding a config parameter for the approval_promt setting.

Can you explain what service you're calling that is not returning a user email?

  Hi,

I'm trying to calling CustomerService.
CustomerService that will give me idea about customer who tryed to get data using API.
This will help a lot when user is using MCC account for authentication, and adwords account has no CompanyName / Name info.

Also, I requested you to Add all beta feature to be available for all developer.

while you can't set it in the array, you can still append it to the URL if you need to.

Hello,

'approval_prompt' => 'force' is not working as expected.
If I pass the 'approval_prompt' => 'force', it is still not asking user to authorize app forcefully If I already had login with already authorized adwords account.

Also It is not returning refresh_token with $user->GetOAuth2Info() under below code.

$OAuth2Handler = $user->GetOAuth2Handler();
$user->SetOAuth2Info($OAuth2Handler->GetAccessToken($user->GetOAuth2Info(),
$code, $redirectUri));
$user->GetOAuth2Info();

Thanks,

Hi @chiragvels approval_prompt isn't supported by this library (but the beta version of this library should support it as it uses the Google Auth library). As @saturnism mentioned, you might have to add it to the URL yourself. You can find our OAuth2 documentation here:
https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2

Thanks,
Vincent

Hello @vtsao ,

I am passing parameters properly.
It seems to be issue with new version of library 13.1.0 and I was not facing any issue with lib version 10.0.0.
I was using approval_prompt = force since 2011, and not changed any core files for login.

However I found this issue that approval_prompt=force is replaced with prompt = consent, and that was solved this problem.

I have also conversation going on at forum, I think you can clear idea of my problem from this thread.

mmm okay, then I guess our OAuth2 params have changed. Either way it's not specific to this library, but thanks for pointing it out.
