Before you can integrate Google Sign-In into your website, you must have a Google API Console project. In the project, you create a client ID, which is needed to call the sign-in API.

To create a Google API Console project and client ID, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Google API Console.
  2. From the project drop-down, select an existing project, or create a new one by selecting Create a new project.
  3. Now we need a configuration file for our Android app. So go to this link.

  1. Select your app that you just created on the developer console.

  1. Enter the package name of your app. It should be in the format com.storehippo.app, in the Mobile App section in the StoreHippo Admin panel.

  2. Click on Choose and configure services button.

  3. Now select Google Sign-In the service page.
