Google Settings
To enable Google Integrations, ERPNext needs access to the API through which the data will be synced which is achieved using OAuth 2.0 Authentication Protocol.
How to set up Google Settings
For Google Calendar, Google Contacts, Google Drive and Google Indexing
In order to allow a synchronization with any of the above mentioned services, you need to authorize ERPNext to get data from Google. Following is an example for setting up Google Contacts Integration
- Create a new project on Google Cloud Platform and generate new OAuth 2.0 credentials.
Enable API Access in API Library for the Integration you wish to integrate.
- Google Calendar: Calendar API
- Google Contacts: People API
- Google Drive: Drive API
- Google Indexing: Indexing API
In API & Services > Credentials create a new Credential and select Create OAuth client ID
- Select Application Type Web Application
- Add
https://{yoursite}
to Authorized JavaScript origins. - Add
https://{yoursite}?cmd=frappe.integrations.doctype.google_calendar.google_calendar.google_callback
as an authorized redirect URI for Google Calendar. Add
https://{yoursite}/api/method/frappe.integrations.google_oauth.callback
as an authorized redirect URI for rest of the services.- Add your Client ID and Client Secret in the Google Settings in Home > Integrations > Google Services > Google Settings
For Google Maps
In order to allow a synchronization with Google Maps you need to generate an API key as Google Maps doesn't need access to data from Google.
- Create a new project on Google Cloud Platform and generate new API Key.
- Enable API Access in API Library for the Directions API and then add the API Key in the Google Settings in Home > Integrations > Google Services > Google Settings.
