I have set this up and it works. However, every once in a while, about once in a month or two frequency, a user will suddenly be unable to sign-in with Google. After clicking on the sign-in button, they will get a blank Knack loading screen and stay there forever. The only way to solve this is the user will have to login using username/password combo instead. Thereafter, this will be fixed and they can use Google Sign-in for another month or two.
This eventually happens to every user and will repeat. It happens to each user on their own terms, not simultaneously. Support have been unhelpful, as all they tell me is to follow the Help directions to set it up correctly.
I’m suspecting some kind of user information in Knack is being corrupt and using username/password combo resets it.
I’m in IT and it’s pretty common to implement Sign-in With Google with other apps. I have never encountered issues like this that is intermittent and yet persistent, it’s been going on for a year now.
