Sign In With Google, One Tap is a feature that allows users to sign in to websites with their Google account with just one tap. One Tap uses Google's strong security infrastructure to protect users' accounts, and it eliminates the need for users to remember and enter passwords.
To use One Tap, users need to have a Google account and have enabled two-factor authentication for their account. When a user tries to sign in to a website that supports One Tap, they will be prompted to approve the login request from their Google account. If the user approves the request, they will be signed in just by clicking the Google button.
There are three steps to complete the connection from Google to your MemberGate site.
1. Complete the OAuth Consent Form
2. Create the Client ID and Client Secret
3. Add the Client ID and Client Secret to your MemberGate site
