GoogleApiClient connection failed: ConnectionResult{statusCode=SIGN_IN_REQUIRED,

Question

I am attempting to integrate Google Drive into my application with little success. Using the code from the Quick Start repository, I get the following error message every time I select a user account for log in:

I/DriveDemo: GoogleApiClient connection failed: ConnectionResult{statusCode=SIGN_IN_REQUIRED, resolution=PendingIntent{867e070: android.os.BinderProxy@13cdfe9}, message=null}

I have followed the directions at the urls below:

and followed the video at:

I have also looked at numerous Stack Overflow questions and answers with no idea what I am doing wrong.

manifest.xml:

Do you register your development/ release key in Google API console? — Cheok Yan Cheng, Feb 11 '17 at 20:17
@lightkeeper make AuthKey in developer console using yourpackage and SHA key and you are good to go... — , Apr 13 '17 at 10:33
Do keep in mind that Studio's Instant Run does NOT create a signed APK ... unless you've placed signing information within your app's build.gradle. — RudyF, Jul 19 '17 at 12:16

Based on the documentation - SIGN_IN_REQUIRED

The client attempted to connect to the service but the user is not signed in. The client may choose to continue without using the API. Alternately, if hasResolution() returns true the client may call startResolutionForResult(Activity, int) to prompt the user to sign in. After the sign in activity returns with RESULT_OK further attempts should succeed.

You may also check @Cheok's question, a SO post that suggested to properly add your SHA-1 and Package Name as asked and enable API once project credentials are all set.

Hope this information helps.

I followed all steps to create the key and register it in the API console. The API is displaying as active in the console. This is why I am stuck. – lightkeeper Feb 12 '17 at 12:24

I had a similar problem which got fixed after I ensured that every APK build was signed by the same keystore that I used when doing "Get an Android certificate and register your application" as described here

When using Studio, I carried out "automatic signing" by following the steps described in "Configure the build process to automatically sign your APK" as described here. Obviously, use the same keystore as the one used when registering your app (above).
