What does the sign out with google block actually do? I know that the sign in block lets us access the account info…
Even I was curious and Googled it like this:
“what does logging out of google firebase mean?”
Got a very good and complete answer. If anyone wants I can share that info here…
Sorry, I mean with Google Oauth. Anyone know?
The sign out from Google block means when you sign in with Google at the start of your project, it will stay signed in until you call the sign out function. If you keep it in a stored variable, then even if you close and reopen the app, your Google account will still stay signed in. When you click the sign out button, it will log out your Google account from your app, but you need to manually set your stored variable(s) to "".
Using Firebase and OAuth are two different things when using Thunkable.
Firebase is to sign in with email, and enter your own custom password and profile picture, while OAuth gathers your Google account information and stores it similarly to the Firebase procedure, but will only gather your profile picture, email, GUser ID, and first/last/full name.
If someone addresses it as “Google Sign in,” it’s very possible they are mentioning OAuth, not Firebase.
