Integrating Google Login with NodeBB via AWS Cognito
-
I am using AWS Cognito with React.js on the frontend for registration and login. If a user logs in successfully, I call the NodeBB login or register API from the backend. Now, I want to add Google login with NodeBB.

balu why? I thought you weren't using the NodeBB frontend

julian The NodeBB frontend is excellent, but I want to build a different UI and also integrate some additional modules into the project. That’s why I decided not to use the default frontend.
-
balu that's my point. If you're not using the frontend, then there's no need to set up Google login. Just use Cognito
