OAuth out-of-band flow will be blocked for your production OAuth clients.

Our records indicate you have OAuth clients in test mode that are using the  
OAuth OOB flow.

Hello Google OAuth Developer,

We are writing to inform you that OAuth out-of-band (OOB) flow will be  
deprecated on October 3, 2022, to protect users from phishing and app  
impersonation attacks.

Please check our recent blog post about Making Google OAuth interactions  
safer for more information.

What do I need to do?

No action is required on your part as apps using OOB in testing mode will  
not be affected by this change. However, we strongly recommend you to  
migrate to safer methods as these apps will be immediately blocked when  
switching to production status.

If you have already migrated your app(s) to an alternative OAuth method, no  
further action is required. Please note that if your app(s) is natively  
installed you may have to request your users to update the app to the newer  
version to stop using the OOB method.

If you want to publish your app(s) to production, follow these instructions:


Determine your app(s) client type from your Google Cloud project by  
following the client links below. See the Setting up OAuth 2.0 page for  
more information.
Migrate your app(s) to a more secure alternative method by following the  
instructions in the blog post linked above for your client type.

The following OAuth client(s) are using the OOB flow in test mode.

Project ID: claws-355522

Client:

Thanks for choosing Google OAuth.
