Google AppInvite

Question

Realize Google AppInvite by Google manual - link.

Start Invite Activity and get next in the LogCat:

E/AppInviteAgent: Get suggested invitees failed due to error code: 3
            No Android client ID is found for package name <MY_PACKAGE_NAME>. (APPINVITE_CLIENT_ID_ERROR)

E/AppInviteAgent: Create invitations failed due to error code: 3
            No Android client ID is found for package name <MY_PACKAGE_NAME>. (APPINVITE_CLIENT_ID_ERROR)

Then I add a Log.d in the onActivityResult method and get in the LogCat:

onActivityResult: requestCode=0, resultCode=3

Can somebody help me ? I try to fix it about 2 weeks.

Can you provide more information, e.g. what you want to achieve, some source code etc. — manniL, Mar 25 '16 at 18:55

In firebase console under Project Settings find "Certificate Fingerprints (SHA-1)" part and from the help icon you will be directed to https://developers.google.com/android/guides/client-auth and enter generated SHA1 keys for both release and debug certificate fingerprints. Then resultCode 3 will gone and you will send the invitation.

You may need to generate your APK in release mode, not debug mode.

Have you double-checked your OAuth Client ID of your project in Google Developers Console?

Make sure you correctly put your project's SHA-1 and package name. I suggests you created two client IDs: one with SHA-1 for debug key, and another for release key.

You can also safely remove google-services.json file and apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services' code in your app-level build.gradle file since "it is just a quickstart helper to generate some basic android-resource files for easier integration of specific Google API features." as described here.

Yes, I have an OAuth Client ID in my Google Developer Console. Okey, if I will delete a `*.json` file and `apply plugin: ..." my app invite will be started when I launch my app on real device with signing ? I don't want to make a new release for test appinvite. – Oleksandr.D Mar 28 '16 at 08:10
The error said `... No Android client ID is found for package name ...`, are you sure you have entered _correct_ **package name** in your project's OAuth Client ID? Yes it will work just fine, I have tested it on my J5 on debug version and Alpha APK on Google Play Developer Console. – simplebe Mar 28 '16 at 08:18
Are you also sure it's your `OAuth Client ID`, **not** `API Key` as described [here](http://stackoverflow.com/a/36118171/3273872)? – simplebe Mar 28 '16 at 08:29
Yes, because the name is "Android client for (auto created by Google Service)" – Oleksandr.D Mar 28 '16 at 08:31
simplebe, I was delete a OAuth and create new. But it doesn't help me. – Oleksandr.D Mar 28 '16 at 09:21

I think that it should work automatically, if you have connected your Firebase with your app on Google Play, but you have to download your application from Google Play. I had the same problem and it didn't work in my case, because I had the version of an application which I installed straight from the computer (debug mode).
