Summary

Setting up Google Business Profile API access with OAuth 2.0 for a Unified integration requires a Google account with appropriate Business Profile permissions, an active and verified profile that generally meets Google’s age and website requirements, and a new Google Cloud project. Users must submit Google’s Application for Basic API Access early, since API quotas remain at zero and calls return 429 errors until approval, which may take days or weeks. After creating the project, users enable the required Business Profile APIs, configure an OAuth consent screen with the sensitive business.manage scope alongside standard identity scopes, and work with Unified Support to configure a CNAME for the redirect URL so the app can be verified under the desired branding. They then create web OAuth credentials using the redirect URI supplied by Unified, publish and verify the application, and enter the resulting client ID and secret into Unified. Approval can be confirmed through Cloud Console quotas, where 300 requests per minute indicates access is active; common issues include pending approval, incorrect OAuth credentials or redirect URI, missing profile permissions, disabled APIs, and unverified application branding.
