- Project ID: Must be unique to all Google Developer registered applications. Google provides a randomly generated Project ID by default. You can use the randomly generated ID or choose a new one.
1. Refresh the page. You should now see your new project in the list. Click on the project.
1. Select the "Google APIs" tab in the Overview.

- Authorized redirect URI: 'https://gitlab.example.com/users/auth/google_oauth2/callback'
1. Under the heading "Client ID for web application" you should see a Client ID and Client secret (see screenshot). Keep this page open as you continue configuration. ![Google app](img/google_app.png)
- **Application type** - Choose "Web Application"
- **Authorized JavaScript origins** -This isn't really used by GitLab but go

1. On your GitLab server, open the configuration file.
```
https://gitlab.example.com/users/auth/google_oauth2/callback
https://gitlab.example.com/google_api/auth/callback
```
For omnibus package:
1. Under the heading "Client ID for web application" you should see a Client ID

later.
On your GitLab server:
1. Open the configuration file.
For Omnibus GitLab:
```sh
sudo editor /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb

```
For installations from source:
```sh
cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H editor config/gitlab.yml
cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H editor config/gitlab.yml
```

## Further Configuration
This further configuration is not required for Google authentication to function but it is strongly recommended. Taking these steps will increase usability for users by providing a little more recognition and branding.

At this point, when users first try to authenticate to your GitLab installation with Google they will see a generic application name on the prompt screen. The prompt informs the user that "Project Default Service Account" would like to access their account. "Project Default Service Account" isn't very recognizable and may confuse or cause users to be concerned. This is easily changeable.
