Connections

OAuth2

All requests to the Google Content API for Shopping must be authorized by an authenticated user.

The details of the authorization process, or "flow," for OAuth 2.0 vary somewhat depending on what kind of application you're writing. The following general process applies to all application types:

1. When you create your application, you register it using the Google API Console. Google then provides information you'll need later, such as a client ID and a client secret.
2. From APIs & Services > Library, activate the Google Content API for Shopping
3. To create API Credentials navigate to Enabled APIs & Services and select Content API for Shopping
   1. Select Create Credentials
   2. Ensure Content API for Shopping is set for Select an API*
   3. Choose User Data and select Next
   4. Fill out the OAuth consent screen with an app name (your company or product's name), support email, app logo, domain, etc.
   5. Select Add Or Remove scopes, search Content API for Shopping, and check the boxes for the following scopes
      1. https://capture.dropbox.com/yONkE7x1vw9doIJ9
   6. For OAuth Client ID, under Application type select Web application.Under Authorized redirect URIs enter Prismatic's OAuth 2.0 callback URL: https://oauth2.prismatic.io/callbackClick CREATE.
      1. Take note of the Client ID and Client Secret that are generated, as you will enter them into Prismatic for Authentication.
   7. Client Id and Secret can also be obtained in the Credentials Page under the OAuth 2.0 Client IDs section by selecting the name of the OAuth client created.

Triggers

PubSub Notification

PubSub Notification Trigger Settings | key: myTrigger

The Push Notifications service lets you to receive notifications that an order has been created. This is called "push" since Google will push notifications to you about events, such as orders, that happen on the Google side.

• The Content API's pubsubnotificationsettings.update receives the request and sends you back a cloudTopicName.

• To configure additional Topics

  • In the Google Cloud console, select the navigation menu scroll to the Pub/Sub page (Navigation Menu > More Products > Analytics > Pub/Sub)
  • In the Topics page, click Create Topic
    • In the window that opens, enter MyTopic in the Topic ID field.
      • Leave the default values for the remaining options, and then click Create.
      • You see the success message: A new topic and a new subscription have been successfully created.
      • You have just created a topic called MyTopic and an associated default subscription MyTopic-sub.

• You create a subscription for the topic and register the URL push endpoint with Cloud Pub/Sub.

• To Configure Subscription go to Pub/Sub > Subscriptions

  • In the Subscriptions page, click Create subscription.

  • Enter MySub in the Subscription ID field.

  • For Select a Cloud Pub/Sub topic, select the MyTopic topic from the drop-down menu

      MyTopic. Pub/Sub delivers all messages sent to

      MyTopic to the MySub and MyTopic-sub subscriptions.

• Cloud Pub/Sub accepts your subscription and associates that cloudTopicName with your URL. When messages are published to that cloudTopicName (for example, your order notifications), they will be sent to your URL push endpoint.
