Google Drive Error: Access Token

    About a week ago all my client’s sites set to backup to my Google Drive started coming up with “Google Drive: ERROR: Have not yet obtained an access token from Google (has the user authorised?)” in the logs.

    I’ve gone through to clear settings and re-authenticate, at which point I get both “Success: you have authenticated your Google Drive account.” and “Google Drive: Have not yet obtained an access token from Google – you need to authorise or re-authorise your connection to Google Drive.” appearing as banners in the plugin settings pages.

    The only exceptions were sites set up the old way, where I had to create an Updraft project in the Google Drive API management thingywotsit. Those sites weren’t having access token issues.

    Everything’s updated. I’ve tried turning off security/caching plugins. Any ideas?

    Can you please try to Wipe settings from UpdraftPlus > Advanced tools > Wipe Settings, Click the Wipe settings button.

    Then go to UpdraftPlus > Settings, re-authenticate to your GoogleDrive account, Save the settings and re-run the backup process.

    Check if the backup process is now completed?

    Thanks,

    Hi Harshad,

    Thanks for getting back to me. Tried this again but no luck. Backups are still failing, seemingly for the same reason:

    “0068.115 (0) Google Drive: ERROR: Have not yet obtained an access token from Google (has the user authorised?)
    0068.116 (0) An error condition has occurred for the first time during this job”

    Can you please share the recent backup log file, Please copy/paste the logs to https://pastebin.com and share the link here.

    Thanks,

    Hi Harshad,

    Sorry to bug you – was there anything more in the logs that might help?

    Problem is still ongoing.

    I’m wondering if it might be worth me revoked permission from the Google side of things and trying again after that.

    Extremely sorry for the delay!

    The log shows:
    0068.115 (0) Google Drive: ERROR: Have not yet obtained an access token from Google (has the user authorised?)

    Can you please try to Wipe settings from UpdraftPlus > Advanced tools > Wipe settings, Click Wipe settings button.

    Then go to UpdraftPlus > Settings, re-authenticate to your GoogleDrive account then click Save settings and re-run the backup process.

    Check if the backup process works as expected.

    Thanks,
    Harshad

    No trouble.

    I did try to wipe settings previously but the same error occurred.

    I tried revoking permissions from the Google account side of things, then just going through each client site and re-authenticating. This has worked and things appear to be up and running again.

    It’s weird how they all just stopped working one day after years (for some) of being fine. Thanks for your help though.
