Unable to use play_games_services.sign_in() function

[johnkappa221]

Whenever I call the function play_games_services.sign_in(), there seems to be a popup which will end instantaneously and I would not be able to login.

hey @johnkappa221 did you figured it out? I have almost the same problem I was able to sign in once but then after that I can't I get a pop up that end instantly after and I'm not able to sign in, sign out or show leaderboard.

@johnkappa221 , @anisc could you please try again with the latest released plugin 1.2.0 (https://github.com/cgisca/PGSGP/releases/tag/1.2.0) . Please check once again Readme, and follow up all the steps described there.

[EDITED] I had the same problem. If the error code received by the sign_in call back is 8 (Permission Denied), the solution is to log into Google API Console and enable Google Drive API. The requirement for this API permission is not well documented.

If the error code is 4, you may need to check the SHA1 key that is entered when you configure the Google Play services. If you are using a debug build, you need to link it separately. https://developers.google.com/games/services/console/enabling#c_specify_client_id_settings

Does anyone have any pointers on fixing error code 8 when trying to sign in? I've enabled Google Drive API but no luck. I configured Google Play Services correctly as far as I know but only did it yesterday so wonder if it takes time to propagate or something?

EDIT: ah my bad, was missing app_id from the AndroidManifest
