Using OAuth2 authentication, can I fetch more of user info than email? Or,still not?

[roshandawrani]

Hello,

I saw some previous threads about how to retrieve user info (for whom
the access token is issued) more than the email id (https://
www.googleapis.com/userinfo/email).

Is it still the case that it is not possible with OAuth2 and OpenID
needs to be used for that?

rgds,

Hi, no, no reply yet. We are just able to get the email id from Google so far...

Add "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile" to scope and request URL "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo?alt=json" (or alt=xml). This will give you such information, as full name, id, profile url, and email (if "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email" is in scope).

I guess this is because of moving google-profile to google+
And since i's still beta, manuals will not be updated soon.
