When I prevent 3rd party cookies, the Google Signin onsuccess function remains inactive

I've been working on an AngularJS application that utilizes the basic Google Signin process outlined here: https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/.

Everything is functioning properly, and I'm able to sign in as a Google user. However, I've encountered a problem when third-party cookies are disabled.

When third-party cookies are turned off in browsers like Chrome (seen in these content settings), the Google sign-in process fails to work.

Specifically, I have a function that should trigger upon a successful sign-in event from the Google button, but nothing happens. Additionally, I'm unable to capture any errors to find a workaround.

Another issue that arises is an error when loading Google metadata with third-party cookies disabled:

Uncaught SecurityError: Failed to read the 'localStorage' property from 'Window': Access is denied for this document

It appears that Google completes the necessary steps correctly upon success but fails to execute the code within the onsuccess function.

I've tried various solutions, including checking Google's integration page where clicking on the sample sign-in button results in the same behavior:

  • If I enable cookies, it displays "signed in as: MyName"
  • If I disable cookies, no information is returned

The main question remains - is there a way to capture this error, find a workaround, and prevent Google from behaving as if everything is fine without executing the code within the onsuccess function?

Answer №1

If users have disabled third party cookies, they will not be able to access the pop-up Google sign-in feature according to reports.

This limitation is a significant obstacle for us since utilizing third party cookies aligns with recommended privacy practices (and is the default in Safari). The alternative solution involves utilizing the Google API to create an authentication URL, leading to receiving a token via callback.
