Description david.naughton2@gmail.com 2024-07-19 10:21:19 UTC
Description:
I am trying to connect my Google Drive with Libre Office, But I keep getting an error saying 'the specified device is invalid'. I searched on the internet, and a site said that if you use 2FA (which I do) then to leave the password blank. I did that for the first 2 pop-up screens and then it asked for an authentication code. I copied the url  and pasted it into my browser and I got an error message (See attached screenshot).

Steps to Reproduce:
Method A
1.In Libre Office click Remote Files
2.Click Manage Services
3.Click Add Service
4.Select Google Drive
5.Enter Username and Password
6.Click Okay
7. Returns an error message The specified device is invalid

or

Method B
1.Complete Steps 1-4 from above
2.Enter username and leave password blank
3.Click Ok
4.At Authentication Required pop up click Ok
5.Copy the link
6. Paste into address bar in browser and press enter

Actual Results:
Method A: the specified device is invalid
Method B: Access blocked: Ubuntu’s request is invalid (see attached screenshot)

Expected Results:
Connects to Google Drive to allow access to files


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
I have 2FA on my Google account

Hello, I can reproduce the bug with LO 24.2.2, but not with 24.2.5. Please, can you retest the bug? Thank you.
