I'm building a chrome extension that will read the user's emails and check them for typos. However, when trying to authenticate the user in my background.js I'm running into this error:
uO {message: "Invalid cookiePolicy", stack: "gapi.auth2.ExternallyVisibleError: Invalid cookieP… at handleResponse (extensions::sendRequest:67:7)"}
Here is how I'm trying to authenticate them:
background.js
var head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
var script = document.createElement('script');
script.type = 'text/javascript';
script.src = "https://apis.google.com/js/client.js?onload=callbackFunction";
head.appendChild(script);
chrome.identity.getAuthToken({interactive: true}, authorize);
function authorize(token) {
gapi.auth.authorize({
client_id: '800382879116-k3luktdc1lmb1e1fml8i8u.apps.googleusercontent.com',
immediate: true,
scope: 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly'
},
function(result){
console.log(result);
gapi.client.load('gmail', 'v1', callback);
});
}
background.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script src='scripts/background.js'></script>
</body>
</html>
manifest.json
{
"name": "Gmail Typo Analyzer",
"version": "0.1",
"description": "Gmail Typo Analyzer",
"permissions": [
"identity",
"storage"
],
"content_security_policy": "script-src 'self' https://apis.google.com; object-src 'self'",
"oauth2": {
"client_id": "82879116-k3luktdc1li8u.apps.googleusercontent.com",
"scopes": [

]
},
"browser_action": {

},
"manifest_version": 2,
"key": "c0Kn5f+t92r4P8lmmoDlKtQ6X9Q42UfFtkkiSRBAVMPHnIHqOQvYC67VczJefSNTGpUYa8+wQDFoFj/clH9SfR+BvOGgI6BUVKBNGGoFS"
}
I'm super lost right now as their doesn't seem to be a definitive guide on achieving what I'm trying to do anywhere. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

You didn't post your manifest.json file, where you would set the oauth2 credentials, so I would try something like:
manifest.json
...
"oauth2" : "client_id": "800382879116-k3luktdc1lmb1e1fml8i8u.apps.googleusercontent.com",
"scopes": [
"https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly"
]
...
background.js
chrome.identity.getAuthToken({interactive: true}, authorize);
function authorize(token) {
if (token) {
//user has given authorization, use token for requests.
//...
} else {
//no authorization received.
console.log('No authorization. Error: ' + chrome.runtime.lastError);
}
};
And you don't need to load Google API client, you can access Gmail's Restful API with XMLHttpRequests or Fetch API.
