Changing request level for google project

Question

How do I lower the requested access level of an existing google project? It's currently asking for:

• View your email address
• View your basic profile info
• Manage your contacts

When all I really want is to authenticate a user for login purposes, and I think all I need for that is:

• Have offline access

Answer 1

One of the parameters you are passing when you create a credential is called scope, and contains a list of each of the services your users must authorize.

From the OAuth 2.0 docs, scope contains a string or iterable of strings. Change it to the new scopes you want.
