# Sign in with Google

> Enable signing in with a Google account in Mage.

### Pre-requisites

First, you'll need to enable user authentication within Mage. You can find out more about
this in the [Overview page](/production/authentication/overview).

### Enable Google sign in

<Note>
  Mage will request access for the following scopes:

  ```
  https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email
  https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile
  ```
</Note>

By default, users will not see the "Sign in with Google" option in their sign in page.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add Oauth application">
    You will need to add Mage as an OAuth client in your Google Cloud Platform project.
    For more instructions on how to do this, please see the [Google Cloud Platform documentation](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/openid-connect#appsetup).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Retrieve credentials">
    Once you have created the credentials, you will need to get the application's client ID and client secret.
    You will also need to add `http(s)://<your-mage-url>/oauth` as an authorized redirect URI.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set environment variables">
    Set the following environment variables in your Mage setup.

    | Name                   | Value             |
    | ---------------------- | ----------------- |
    | `GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID`     | `<client id>`     |
    | `GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET` | `<client secret>` |
  </Step>
</Steps>

You should now see the "Sign in with Google" button when you start Mage and attempt to sign in.
