Hi everyone, my question is about backends Github and Google.
Specifically it is: If Google and Github always return email field?. I know that facebook It may or may not return it.

Thanks!

Hi,

By default Google will request access to the email address, Github will
only request for the public profile information (sometimes that includes
the email address, sometimes it doesn't).

On Github you can ask for access to the email by specifying the scope
"user:email", more on scopes here https://developer.github.com/v3/oauth/#scopes
