When trying to install our application in the g suite marketplace, users face 404 error after approving the permissions https://www.screencast.com/t/C6tuwym8Sp.
when closing the popup we have another 2 step pop-up which doesn't lead anywhere, not calling the callback url. In the apps section in the g suite admin dashboard we can see that the application was integrated.
This behavior is breaking our flow as users are integrated in the g suite marketplace are out of sync in our backend.
This should be fixed already, let me know if that's not the case.

A submission has been in the certification phase for more than 2 weeks, and it can't be cannelled. The dashboard says a few but could be up to 3 days.
I tried to cancel the submission serveral times, nothing changed. The certification is always at "Pre-processing".
Try running the Windows App Certification Kit (WACK) locally to see if it passes there. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/debug-test-perf/windows-app-certification-kit
If the tests fail locally, you'll have an error report describing what problem(s) occurred.
If WACK tests pass locally, but certification fails/hangs in the dashboard, without showing any error report, you'll likely need support from the dashboard team who can look into the specific package and find out why it's stuck. You can loop them in by going to http://aka.ms/storesupport, selecting contact us, and then choose the Dasbhoard topic, App submissions issue type, and package management subcategory. There's options to chat or submit an incident there. They should be able to tell you why it's failing.
So here I am again, exploring new Google platform and hunting down information and docs.
I'm trying to build a skeleton of a flow before I write any business logic code with actual use of the APIs, and as expected from Google, this process is excruciatingly painful.
I've tried to follow this doc:
https://developers.google.com/gsuite/marketplace/listing
Packaged the zip, put the flag DOMAIN_INSTALLABLE flag as was instructed in order for the app to be installible from the marketplace. In the dashboard of PRICING & DISTRIBUTION I've selected Private and added testers to the list of testers.
Now when I click View in Chrome Web Store (seen in image) it takes me to the extensions web store, and not to the marketplace store.
How can I get to the GSuite Marketplace flow, rather than the extension flow? Do I need to alter my manifest.json in some way that is not mentioned in the docs?
Thanks
it's true that the publishing flow is too complicated now. We are working on improvements and in the future everything will be in one place.
Unfortunately G Suite Marketplace does not support trusted testers (yet), that's why it doesn't show up.
What you might be able to do, is modify the url a bit after you clicked on 'View in Chrome Web Store'.
Just remove everything after the webstore id
I use this url:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/xxxxxx
xxxx should be your webstore id
You should be able to show your unlisted app in the Gsuite Marketplace, where you can initiate the install flow.
It works for me, but my test app
Looking into building some Gsuite Marketplace apps, but we have having issues at the publish time already.
Publishing an app following these steps makes the app to be accessible from the Chrome Marketplace.
(e.g. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/qwertzuiopasdfghjkl/publish-accepted)
Using Chrome web store app link (e.g. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/app-name/qwertzuiopasdfghjkl)
redirects to a Gsuite link (e.g. https://gsuite.google.com/marketplace/app/qwertzuiopasdfghjkl?pann=cwsdp&hl=en-US) but brings a 404 page.
Waiting seems to do the job (url works after a couple of days - approval)
Changing app type from "Private" to "Unlisted" break it completely; even waiting up to a week, the link never works again.
My questions are:
How do you switch between "Visibility options" without breaking your
app?
How do you guys deal with updating publishing apps on Gsuite
Marketplace and keep it working?
Cheers!
Every new update requires a new installation. So everytime you make changes whether feature or visibility settings, treat it as if you were uploading a new app.
If you change the visibility, it will undergo a review process as if it were a new app.
Users who have already installed your app will still be able to use it.
I've created a Google Hangout extension app, tested it works privately etc and now I'm trying to publish it. I have followed the instructions here:
https://developers.google.com/+/hangouts/publishing
I've filled in the forms correctly, created the O-Auth client ID, filled out the consent form etc. When I tick the Make this application public tickbox and try to save, a server error message pops up along the lines of:
Server Error
Whoops! Our bad.
Please try again. If the problem persists, please let us know using the "Send feedback" link below. Thanks!

I've checked the Chrome console - the request gets a 500 error and in the JSON response I can see:
{"message":"Developer not registered with CWS."}
I have paid the $5 one-off developer fee on the Chrome Web Store and I am the Hangout project owner. I'm not sure what I'm missing here. I need to get this published in the next 24 hours...
Any useful insights? Is there any official support forum for Google+ platform developers?
UPDATE
I was using a Google Apps account before so I've paid the developer fee on a personal account to verify me on CWS, made this account owner of the Hangout project and I still get the same message response.
I believe then that it's basically just broken. Thanks Google.
We are in the process of creating our new app for v2 of the apps marketplace. Recently we have run into quite a major issue and we are having a lot of trouble resolving it.
We are testing the workflow where a domain admin installs via the chrome webstore listing. The actual installation of the app works, insofar as the app is installed on the domain and the scopes appear to be granted when looking at the "Manage API client access" section in the domain admin panel (http://i.stack.imgur.com/a63nv.png).
However, when we attempt to use the service account to get calendar or contacts info, we are getting "Requested client not authorized" errors.
{
"error" : "access_denied",
"error_description" : "Requested client not authorized."
}
However, if we manually add our service account + scopes to the domain in question, then accessing the data programmatically works fine (http://i.stack.imgur.com/g6pRg.png).
So, clearly we are missing something here, with how installing a marketplace app via the chrome web store is supposed to work.
Other things to note:
Chrome webstore listing is marked as unlisted.
New marketplace app is not approved (obviously) as the tester received this specific error when attempting to install the marketplace app.
We got it figured out. The issue was in how we declared our contacts API scope in the marketplace sdk setup screen.
In the marketplace setup screen, we declared using the contacts scope without a trailing slash ("https://www.google.com/m8/feeds").
However in our app, we were sending oauth requests for the calendar feed with the slash at the end. ("https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/"). This mismatch caused the whole request to fail with the error message above.
If anyone runs into this and is baffled at why their service account requests are failing, make sure you are consistent with your slashes at the end!
I would suggest to Google that you should update the marketplace sdk screen to also be consistent and reject scopes that do not have a slash at the end. That would have saved us days of frustration.
