Recipe for adding per-user authentication for Google APIs to a Coda pack

pack.ts

import * as coda from "@codahq/packs-sdk";

export const pack = coda.newPack();

pack.setUserAuthentication({
  type: coda.AuthenticationType.OAuth2,
  authorizationUrl: "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth", // see https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server#creatingclient
  tokenUrl: "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token", // see https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server#exchange-authorization-code
  scopes: [
    // add any scopes your project requires to access user data from their Google Account
    // these will generally correspond to the same scopes you have registered for your app in the Google Cloud Platform
    // note that you must include the entire URL, as the path alone (e.g. "calendar.events" or "auth/calendar.events") is not sufficient
    // e.g.
    "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.events",
    "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.calendarlist.readonly"

    // after adding a scope and building a new version, further requests from your pack to the Google API will likely no longer be authorized
    // you will need to connect your pack again to a Google Account from scratch. To do so, remove the pack from your test doc, add it again, and add a new account after clicking to sign in. From there, you will be redirected to a Google consent page where you can authorize the new permissions.
  ],
  additionalParams: {
    // these parameters ensure that you get a refresh token in your Google OAuth2 response, allowing the Pack to automatically refresh its access token.
    // @see https://community.coda.io/t/simple-recipe-for-adding-per-user-authentication-for-google-apis-to-a-coda-pack/27547/2
    access_type: "offline",
    prompt: "consent",
  },
});

// make sure you add the OAuth credentials to the pack, following this guide: https://coda.github.io/packs-sdk/guides/advanced/authentication/#oauth-20

The raw version without any comments:

pack.setUserAuthentication({
  type: coda.AuthenticationType.OAuth2,
  authorizationUrl: "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth",
  tokenUrl: "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
  scopes: [
  ],
  additionalParams: {
    access_type: "offline",
    prompt: "consent",
  },
});
