GoogleLogin and useGoogleLogin (implicit & auth-code) do NOT return matching responses

[kueiRad]

GoogleLogin returns keys including a credentials key:value pair. For our login process, we can use this credentials value with jwt.decode to get an Object containing email, first/last name, avatar image.

I'm trying to create a custom button instead of using GoogleLogin, because GoogleLogin seems to be bugged on Mobile developer mode where the right side of the iframe is overflowing and clipping. From the project readme, I have to use useGoogleLogin.

useGoogleLogin with auth-code flow returns "code", which is not jwt, and nowhere does it say what I'm supposed to do with the value of "code".
useGoogleLogin with implicit flow returns "access_token", which is not jwt either.

Your code example just says to console log this code or access_token value, which is not informative. How are you supposed to use useGoogleLogin?

I am also interested in how I can use useGoogleLogin to get the same response as the default one.

no updates yet, in the mean time I did some hacky css things (overlay an image of what it looks like correctly) to keep using the GoogleLogin component, hopefully a dev responds

Still no fix on this? I need this now. This is so frustrating.

@kueiRad how did you handle the event propagation if the user clicks the image?

@kueiRad how did you handle the event propagation if the user clicks the image?

I wrote a javascript onclick on the image to create a click event for the GoogleLogin component

Which method did you call? Is there a google login method?
