Hi,
currently when trying to authenticate with Google Products, it’s throwing a Google Auth 2.0 Error.
Please help / fix, thanks!
Hey, thanks for the report. This is a known issue we’re tracking. Google Workspace plugins currently can’t pass OAuth when the login is started from the IDE. Google rejects the cursor:// redirect and shows Error 400. This isn’t anything wrong with your setup.
Workaround: log into the Google plugins from the dashboard. Go to cursor.com/agents, open MCP Servers, and click Login there. That flow uses the correct https callback, so auth should work.
I can’t share a timeline yet, but I’ll post an update in the thread as soon as I have one. Let me know if it also fails from the dashboard.
Hey Claire, thanks for the screenshots.
Here’s what I’m seeing from them: the Google plugins (Gmail, Calendar, Drive) are listed under Plugins, but when you click a plugin it only opens a link to the git repo. There’s no Login button, and nothing shows up under MCP Servers for Google either. That’s not the expected flow. The login isn’t popping up, so in this state you really don’t have a working auth path right now.
To narrow it down, can you share two things:
- Is this a personal account, or Team/Enterprise? I’m asking because the Required / Optional tabs in the screenshot usually mean these plugins are admin-managed.
- If you open the agent in the IDE and try calling a Gmail tool directly in chat, do you get an auth prompt or a Login button? OAuth sometimes only starts on first tool use.
Once I have an update on the root issue, I’ll post back here.
Thanks for the response - I’m on a Team Account. We do have a couple of team members who are using the gmail, gcal, and gdrive plugins.
And yes, I am able to use gmail and gdrive (haven’t tested gcal) through the agent in the IDE.
Thanks for pointing me there!
