Passport-Google-OAuth Callback Not working

Question

I have the following Node code using passport-google-oauth...

app.get(\'/auth/google\', passport.authenticate(\'google\', { scope : [\'profile\', \'email\'] }));         


        

Answer 1

i just found out that passport-google-oauth package exports the following:

exports.Strategy =
exports.OAuthStrategy = OAuthStrategy;
exports.OAuth2Strategy = OAuth2Strategy;

which means, that the "default" (ie. Strategy) is not oauth2 at all... So you better use OAuth2Strategy explicitly. it worked for me. Took me hours to find out this was the problem...
