InvalidArgumentException in Client.php line 433: Invalid token format

[Artanty]

Hello! Help me pls!

1. Can't understand how to modify the config file config/gmail.php.
   What to do inside of it?
   project id,client id,client secret and redirect I set in .env file.
   Is it necessary to do something with this string ↓ ?
   'credentials_file_name' => env( 'GOOGLE_CREDENTIALS_NAME', 'gmail-json' ),

2. I downloaded .json credentials file from google console, pasted it to:
   "[my project]/storage/app/gmail/tokens"
   then I renamed it to: 'gmail-json.json'
   Is it right?

After that I go to index page where I inserted:

{{ LaravelGmail::user() }}

@if(LaravelGmail::check()) logout @else login @endif

and get "Invalid token format" until I delete this check

did you found any solution?

[Artanty]

no, please help me!

I am stuck too. I already did exactly what you did. Set values in .env, download json file provided by Google console and also put it into storage/app/gmail/tokens. One thing I know is we must provide access_token, refresh_token, and expires_in inside credentials.json, but I dont know the proper way to afford this.

@Artanty, @fajarainul, any news? I'm stuck here too.

No, i tried another library and wrapper for connect to gmail via api, but nothing.
Although gCalendar api and socialite with Google auth work fine.

Hey guys I have an example of my gmail-json.json

{
  "access_token": "ACCESS",
  "token_type": "Bearer",
  "expires_in": 3600,
  "refresh_token": "REFRESH",
  "created": 1522885414,
  "email": "EMAIL"
}

My .env

GOOGLE_PROJECT_ID=PROJECT_ID
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=ID.apps.googleusercontent.com
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=SECRET
GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URI=/oauth/gmail/callback

Hope it helps.

[Artanty]

Hope it helps.

Yes, it helped!
I realized that my mistake was not in gmail-json.json
I simply wrote "GOOGLE_APP_SECRET" instead of "GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET" in .env file.

Thank you!

I'm really glad to hear that @Artanty

We don't need to download .json file and put it into storage/app/gmail/tokens.
This file is creating automatically on callback function "LaravelGmail::makeToken();"
delete it if you put it into storage/app/gmail/tokens.

Thanks @dacastro4 but I must be doing something wrong. I don't know if it is in the config or in the Google console. Is there any step by step tutorial or any working example somewhere I can look at?

[dacastro4]

@pqrs what kind of error are you getting?

[pqrs]

No credentials found.

[pqrs]

Solved! It works now... nothing like restart from the beginning! :)
