Internstart – Google OAuth 2.0 & Gmail API Verification Demo
This video demonstrates how Internstart integrates Google OAuth 2.0 and the Gmail API to allow users to send job application emails directly from their own Gmail accounts.
It covers the full OAuth flow and data usage practices required for Google API verification:
Flow shown in this video:
1. User navigates to the Internstart Settings → Access page
2. Clicks “Connect Google Account” to begin OAuth authentication
3. Views the standard Google OAuth consent screen, where only the gmail.send scope is requested
4. Authorizes access and returns to Internstart, where the app now shows “Revoke Google access”
5. Sends a test email using the Gmail API (users.messages.send)
6. Revokes Gmail access, which deletes stored credentials and removes the connection immediately
