Hey there, @shadsheikh! I'm here to help you with any bugs, questions, or contributions you might have. Let's tackle this together!

The error "invalid_type in 'client_id','client_secret','redirect_uris': Required" likely indicates an issue with your Google API credentials configuration. Here are some steps to resolve it:

1. OAuth Credentials: Ensure that your OAuth Client ID JSON file is correctly created and downloaded. This file should include client_id, client_secret, and redirect_uris. These values need to be accurately copied into your .env and .env.appStore files under the GOOGLE_API_CREDENTIALS key.

2. Redirect URIs: Verify that the authorized redirect URIs are correctly set in the Google API Console. They should match the following format:

   <Cal.com URL>/api/integrations/googlecalendar/callback
   <Cal.com URL>/api/auth/callback/google
   

   Replace <Cal.com URL> with your application's actual URL.

3. Environment Variables: Double-check that the environment variables are correctly set in your .env files. The GOOGLE_API_CREDENTIALS should contain the entire JSON string from the OAuth Client ID JSON file ^[1].

If these configurations are correct and the issue persists, there might be a problem with how the credentials are being read or parsed in your application.

I was able to get it running, took awhile. This post actually helped me. You need to pass the full json wrapped with be, and it'll install and login. The moment I change that in my .env it allowed me to login via 0auth.
