View source for Google OAuth Setup Error An error saving your app has occurred

While trying to set up a new WordPress plugin on my blog, I realized that I needed '''Client ID''' and '''Client Secret''' codes to configure it. I've done this for other projects, so I thought it was no big deal. However, when registering the app at '''console.cloud.google.com''', I kept encountering an error with no explanation.

An error saving your app has occurred

I Googled the error and quickly realized my mistake. Every time I was asked to name my project or name my app, I was just pasting the name of the WordPress plugin: '''Google Apps Login'''. My mistake was using the word '''Google'''.

Immediately after changing the name from '''Google Apps Login''' to '''G Apps Login''', I was able to proceed with no problem.
