OpenRIMS-RPM - Installation Part 2

Google Authentication Explained

OpenRIMS uses OATH2[1] to allow authenticate using Google login. For each deployment, the Google Authentication need to be configured separately.

The Google guide is available here for additional reference and detail:

https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/sign-in and https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/authentication

Here are the steps to perform:

1. Use a Google account to access the Google Cloud Console
2. Create a Project unless you already have one
3. Access APIs & Services for that Project
4. Navigate to Credentials
5. Create Oauth Client ID
6. Choose Web Application
7. Add Authorized Redirection URI e.g. https://openrims.msh.org/login/oauth2/code/google
8. After clicking Create a Client Secret and a Client ID will be created. You need both for the below configuration of OpenRIMS.

After configuration it will be necessary to copy Client ID and Client secret to the application.properties

## OATH2
