Setting up OAuth 2.0 For Android App

Setting up OAuth 2.0 For Android App

You need to specify your Android app's package name and SHA1 fingerprint.

1. In the Package name field, enter your Android app's package name.
2. In a terminal, run the Keytool utility to get the SHA1 fingerprint for your digitally signed .apk file's public certificate.
   keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore path-to-debug-or-production-keystore -list -v
   Note: For the debug.keystore, the password is android. For Eclipse, the debug keystore is typically located at ~/.android/debug.keystore.
   The Keytool prints the fingerprint to the shell. For example:
   $ keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -list -v
Enter keystore password: Type "android" if using debug.keystore
Alias name: androiddebugkey
Creation date: Aug 27, 2012
Entry type: PrivateKeyEntry
Certificate chain length: 1
Certificate[1]:
Owner: CN=Android Debug, O=Android, C=US
Issuer: CN=Android Debug, O=Android, C=US
Serial number: 503bd581
Valid from: Mon Aug 27 13:16:01 PDT 2012 until: Wed Aug 20 13:16:01 PDT 2042
Certificate fingerprints:
   MD5: 1B:2B:2D:37:E1:CE:06:8B:A0:F0:73:05:3C:A3:63:DD
   SHA1: D8:AA:43:97:59:EE:C5:95:26:6A:07:EE:1C:37:8E:F4:F0:C8:05:C8
   SHA256: F3:6F:98:51:9A:DF:C3:15:4E:48:4B:0F:91:E3:3C:6A:A0:97:DC:0A:3F:B2:D2:E1:FE:23:57:F5:EB:AC:13:30
   Signature algorithm name: SHA1withRSA
   Version: 3
   Copy the SHA1 fingerprint, which is bold in the example above.
   Important: When you prepare to release your app to your users, follow these steps again and create a new OAuth 2.0 client ID for your production app. For production apps, use your own private key to sign the production app's .apk file. For more information, see Signing your applications.
3. Paste the SHA1 fingerprint into the form where requested.
4. Click Create.
