# Auth

There are 2 steps for connecting a google account. The first step is to request a Google OAuth URL.

## Get OAuth URL

<mark style="color:blue;">`GET`</mark> `https://api.pyas.io/google/oauth`

#### Query Parameters

| Name                                    | Type   | Description                |
| --------------------------------------- | ------ | -------------------------- |
| email<mark style="color:red;">\*</mark> | String | a user's email address     |
| state                                   | String | optional application state |

#### Headers

| Name                                        | Type   | Description |
| ------------------------------------------- | ------ | ----------- |
| x-api-key<mark style="color:red;">\*</mark> | String | API key     |

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="200: OK OAuth URL was generated successfully" %}

```json
{
    "success": true,
    "url": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth?..."
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="400: Bad Request no email address param was provided" %}

```json
{
    "errors": [
        {
            "msg": "Invalid value",
            "param": "email",
            "location": "query"
        },
        {
            "msg": "a valid email is required.",
            "param": "email",
            "location": "query"
        }
    ]
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="400: Bad Request Invalid email address provided" %}

```json
{
    "errors": [
        {
            "value": "bademail",
            "msg": "a valid email is required.",
            "param": "email",
            "location": "query"
        }
    ]
}
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="401: Unauthorized Invalid or no api key provided" %}

```json
{
    "error": "Unauthorized. Invalid API key."
}
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## Connect Account

The next step is to connect the account. After you get an OAuth URL, you should direct your user to that URL in the browser. The user will then have to authorized/allow access on the OAuth screen. Once the user allows access, Google will redirect the user back to whatever redirect URL that you've set in Pyas. The URL will contain a `code` parameter, which we will use in the connect request.

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

**Note:** Be sure to save the <mark style="color:blue;">`accountId`</mark> returned from the successful connect request. You will need it in order to access the user's Google calendar.
