Does deprecation of JavaScript Google Platform Library affect FusionAuth Google Identity Provider?

[pclark]

Received a notification from Google that they're discontinuing Google Sign-In JavaScript Platform Library for web (https://developers.googleblog.com/2021/08/gsi-jsweb-deprecation.html). They provided us "a list of your client ID(s) that use the legacy Google Sign-In web solution" and the only item was the client id we set up for FusionAuth's Google identity provider.

Will this affect the Google identity provider in FusionAuth, and if so, is it on the roadmap to be updated?

Hi @pclark,

I have raised this issue on Github to review if we are in fact using this JS library and modify if we are. Thanks for the information.

Hi @joshua

I can confirm fusionauth is using deprecated javascript library.

I wrote my analysis here https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-issues/issues/1939

Can you please release a patch for updating the code.

Thank you.

Thanks @harish_reddy !

Per this comment, this is slated to be fixed under https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-issues/issues/1894 .

This is planned for 1.43.0, which is the next release.

Thanks.

The deprecation of the JavaScript Google Platform Library may affect the use of FusionAuth as a Google Identity Provider, depending on how the library is integrated with FusionAuth.
It is recommended to check with the FusionAuth support team or documentation to determine if the deprecation will have any impact on your implementation and what, if any, actions need to be taken.
In general, it's a good practice to regularly review and update any dependencies and libraries used in your application to ensure compatibility and security.

The deprecation of a JavaScript Google Platform Library may affect FusionAuth Google Identity Provider integration if FusionAuth relies on the deprecated library for its Google authentication functionality.
