Google Settings

Google Settings allow ERPNext to connect with Google services using OAuth 2.0 authentication or an API key, depending on the service being integrated.

Services such as Google Calendar, Google Contacts, Google Drive, and Google Indexing use OAuth 2.0, while Google Maps requires an API key for supported features.

1. Supported Google Integrations

Google Calendar
Google Contacts
Google Drive
Google Indexing
Google Maps

2. Configure Google Services Using OAuth 2.0

To synchronize data with Google services, ERPNext must be authorized through Google’s OAuth 2.0 authentication protocol.

Step 1: Create a Google Cloud Project

Create a new project in Google Cloud Platform.
Generate OAuth 2.0 credentials for the project.

Step 2: Enable the Required API

Enable the API corresponding to the service you want to integrate.

Google Calendar — Calendar API
Google Contacts — People API
Google Drive — Drive API
Google Indexing — Indexing API

Step 3: Create OAuth Credentials

Open API & Services > Credentials.
Create a new OAuth Client ID.
Select Web Application as the application type.

Step 4: Configure Authorized URLs

Add the following URLs while configuring the OAuth client:

Authorized JavaScript Origin

https://{yoursite}

Redirect URI for Google Calendar

https://{yoursite}?cmd=frappe.integrations.doctype.google_calendar.google_calendar.google_callback

Redirect URI for Google Contacts, Google Drive, and Google Indexing

https://{yoursite}/api/method/frappe.integrations.google_oauth.callback

Step 5: Configure ERPNext

Copy the generated Client ID and Client Secret into the Google Settings page in ERPNext.

3. Configure Google Maps

Google Maps integration uses an API key instead of OAuth authentication.

An API key is required only for features that use the Directions API, such as Delivery Trip. Other Google Maps features do not require this configuration.

Steps

Create or open a Google Cloud project.
Generate a new API Key.
Enable the Directions API in the API Library.
Enter the generated API Key in Google Settings within ERPNext.
