Created attachment 183759 [details] Google blocks login when adding Google account via KDE Online Accounts Hello, I recently switched to KDE Plasma on Ubuntu specifically because of its built-in Online Accounts feature, which allows for Google Drive integration directly in the file manager (Dolphin). My work depends heavily on accessing and syncing files with Google Drive on a daily basis. Unfortunately, when I try to add my Google account through System Settings → Online Accounts, the login process is blocked by Google, which flags it as a suspicious or insecure login attempt. As a result, I cannot connect my account or access Google Drive at all through the desktop. This issue is critical for users like me who rely on this integration professionally. I suspect the problem is caused by the absence of a verified or registered OAuth client ID for KDE with Google. Please consider: - Registering KDE’s Google integration as a verified OAuth application - Or allowing users to enter their own Google API credentials - Or providing alternative login flows compatible with Google's new OAuth restrictions Thank you for your time and your work on KDE.
