Ping External IDP Google

Overview

Ping External IDP Google is a library that allows you to authenticate with External IDP for Google using the GoogleSignIn-iOS SDK for Native iOS experience. This library acts as a plugin to the PingExternalIdP library, and it provides the necessary configuration to authenticate with Google Sign In natively.

Add dependency to your project

You can add the dependency using Cocoapods or Swift Package Manager. Make sure the PingExternalIdPGoogle is included in the Frameworks and Libraries section of the General configuration pane in Xcode

Usage

To use the PingExternalIdPGoogle with IdpCollector, you need to integrate with PingDavinci module. Read more about Configuration and Usage in PingExternalIdP

If the library is present in the project, calling IdpCollector.authorize() will use the Google Sign In SDK to perform the authentication.

Google Developer Console Configuration for Native Integration

For Google native sign-in to work correctly, you need to configure iOS client credentials in your Google Cloud Platform project.

Configuring Info.plist

Add the following strings to your app’s Info file, replacing the placeholders with your actual Google Client ID and Google Server Client ID:

  <key>GIDClientID</key>
    <string>[your_google_client_id]</string>
    <key>GIDServerClientID</key>
    <string>[your_google_server_client_id]</string>

  <key>CFBundleURLTypes</key>
  <array>
    <dict>
      <key>CFBundleURLSchemes</key>
      <array>
        <string>[your_dot_reversed_google_client_id]</string>
      </array>
    </dict>
  </array>

Handle the authentication redirect URL

UIKit: UIApplicationDelegate

func application(
  _ app: UIApplication,
  open url: URL, options: [UIApplication.OpenURLOptionsKey : Any] = [:]
) -> Bool {
  var handled = GoogleRequestHandler.handleOpenURL(UIApplication.shared, url: url, options: nil)
  if handled {
    return true
  }
...
}

SwiftUI

@main
struct MyApp: App {

  var body: some Scene {
    WindowGroup {
      ContentView()
        // ...
        .onOpenURL { url in
          GoogleRequestHandler.handleOpenURL(UIApplication.shared, url: url, options: nil)
        }
    }
  }
}
}
