We got a message to migrate to the new Google Identity Service.

We do a direct usage of GAPI.Client for authentication and not the Javascript Platform library.

Does anyone know if the deprecation would affect us?

According to this blog post, it doesn't seem to be affected but we are getting the emails from Google asking us to migrate.

  • As per my understanding. It's just the `Javascript` Library that's affected and other back-end client libraries need not to be changed. – Rahul Sharma Feb 08 '23 at 08:41

The answer is Yes. Unfortunately, the deprecation definitely impacts you if you are using the gapi library on your side (see this announcement from Google).

You will need to reproduce what you achieve with gapi (in particular, user authentication and session management) with the new Google Identity Services and/or Server side OAuth.

This documentation shows how individual Gapi functions can be reproduced using GIS Auth and/or a Server side solution.
