According to google documentation for oauth, the first parameter has to be openid and the second can be email or profile, or both

);

Answer 2

Add the line of code after callbackUrl.

userProfileURL: "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/userinfo"

Answer 3

The above answer definitely works, there is also one more way to approach this.

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

In your routes.js with the profile add email.

This should resolve your issue.

Answer 4

I had the same problem and wrote the scope in this way:

app.get('/connect/google', passport.authenticate('google', {
    scope: [
        'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile',
        'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email'
    ]
}));

And you will get the email:

function(accessToken, refreshToken, profile, done) {
    console.log(profile.emails[0].value);
}); 

I hope this helps you.
