# Client id from Google Developer console

https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id=[Application Client Id]&redirect_uri=http://127.0.0.1&scope=[Scopes]&response_type=code

# Exchange Authorization code for an access token and a refresh token.

curl \
--request POST \
--data "code=[Authentcation code from authorization link]&client_id=[Application Client Id]&client_secret=[Application Client Secret]&redirect_uri=http://127.0.0.1&grant_type=authorization_code" \
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token

# Exchange a refresh token for a new access token.
curl \
--request POST \
--data 'client_id=[Application Client Id]&client_secret=[Application Client Secret]&refresh_token=[Refresh token granted by second step]&grant_type=refresh_token' \
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token

@jay you can use http://127.0.0.1 instead of urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob and it works fine.

Works perfectly - thanks!

Why is there a consent screen for the first step to get the code? How would I possible click the Accept in a server environment? Could anyone please help me out if possible.

@rohanmenon96 you wouldn't do this on a server you would do it on your local machine. A server doesn't have a browser window. Get a refresh token then store it and upload that to your server

unrelated but it's worth the reference,
get access_token using google/apiclient library in Laravel(php8),
This access_token works with any project in 1 firebase

Found a good link, Goog OAUth2 Playground helped generate the refresh token with correct scope, etc. Doc here, link is in the doc:
