ballerinax/googleapis.oauth2 Ballerina library
Overview
This is a generated connector for Google OAuth2 API v2.0 OpenAPI specification. The OAuth2 API provides end-user authorization grants for use with other Google APIs.
Prerequisites
Before using this connector in your Ballerina application, complete the following:
- Create a Google account
- Obtain tokens - Follow this link
Quickstart
To use the Google OAuth2 connector in your Ballerina application, update the .bal file as follows:
Step 1: Import connector
First, import the ballerinax/googleapis.oauth2
module into the Ballerina project.
import ballerinax/googleapis.oauth2;
Step 2: Create a new connector instance
Create a oauth2:ClientConfig
with the OAuth2 tokens obtained, and initialize the connector with it.
oauth2:ClientConfig clientConfig = { auth: { clientId: <CLIENT_ID>, clientSecret: <CLIENT_SECRET>, refreshUrl: <REFRESH_URL>, refreshToken: <REFRESH_TOKEN> } }; oauth2:Client baseClient = check new Client(clientConfig);
Step 3: Invoke connector operation
-
Now you can use the operations available within the connector. Note that they are in the form of remote operations.
Following is an example on how to retrieve a oauth token information using the connector.
Retrieve a token information
public function main() { oauth2:Tokeninfo|error response = baseClient->oauth2Tokeninfo(); if (response is oauth2:Tokeninfo) { log:printInfo(response.toString()); } else { log:printError(response.message()); } }
-
Use
bal run
command to compile and run the Ballerina program.
