Last updated

To enable the “Google Photos” integration in Aura Gallery, you must create a project in the Google Cloud Console.

  1. Create a Project:
    • Navigate to the Google Cloud Console.
    • Click the project dropdown at the top and select New Project.
    • Give your project a name (e.g., “Aura Gallery Integration”) and click Create.
  2. Configure the OAuth Consent Screen:
    • In the sidebar, go to APIs & Services > OAuth consent screen.
    • Select External and click Create.
    • Fill in the App name, User support email, and Developer contact email. Click Save and Continue.
    • Skip the Scopes and Test users sections for now; click Save and Continue until finished.
  3. Create Credentials:
    • Go to APIs & Services > Credentials.
    • Click Create Credentials and select OAuth client ID.
    • Select Web application as the application type.
    • Under Authorized redirect URIs, click Add URI.
    • Enter the redirect URL provided in your Aura Gallery plugin settings (typically found on the Authentication tab in your WordPress dashboard).
    • Click Create. Google will display your Client ID and Client Secret. Save these securelyβ€”you will need to enter them into the Aura Gallery plugin settings.
