How to combine two or more google-services.json files together for different google services in the same project using Android Studio

Question

I am creating a project in which I want to integrate GCM and Google sign in , but the problem is that it has a google-services.json configuration file that we need to add to our project.

So, how can I integrate the configuration of the google-services.json file in my project.

Here is my configuration file

 { "project_info": { "project_id": "default-xxx", "project_number": "xxx", "name": "xxx" }, "client": [ { "client_info": { "mobilesdk_app_id": "1:xxx", "client_id": "x.package", "client_type": 1, "android_client_info": { "package_name": "x.package_name" } }, "oauth_client": [], "api_key": [], "services": { "analytics_service": { "status": 1 }, "cloud_messaging_service": { "status": 1, "apns_config": [] }, "appinvite_service": { "status": 1, "other_platform_oauth_client": [] }, "google_signin_service": { "status": 1 }, "ads_service": { "status": 1 } } } ], "client_info": [], "ARTIFACT_VERSION": "1" }

Finally, I did it as follows:

Step 1: Open your google service page in my case the google sign and GCM . A button will appear with the inscription Get configuration file , click on it and enter your data and get the configuration files.

Step 2: Verify that both configuration files have the same configuration in the project_info and client_info . The difference would be in the services object, where you need to check the status, if you added two or more services, the status value will be 2 , which means that they are enabled by services. You can see in the bottom configuration file that I created for the two services that are signed by Google and GCM .

You just need to check your status in the service , where it says 2 for all the services that you integrated into your project, this is the configuration file that you must add.

 { "project_info": { "project_id": "xxxxxxxxxx", "project_number": "xxxxxxxx", "name": "xxxxxxxxxxx" }, "client": [ { "client_info": { "mobilesdk_app_id": "xxxxxxxxxxx", "client_id": "xxxxxxxxxxx", "client_type": 1, "android_client_info": { "package_name": "xxxxxxxxxx" } }, "oauth_client": [ { "client_id": "xxxxxxxxxx", "client_type": 1, "android_info": { "package_name": "xxxxxxxx", "certificate_hash": "xxxxxxxxxxx" } } ], "api_key": [], "services": { "analytics_service": { "status": 1 }, "cloud_messaging_service": { "status": 2, <======= this is my gcm service status "apns_config": [] }, "appinvite_service": { "status": 1, "other_platform_oauth_client": [] }, "google_signin_service": { "status": 2 <===== this my google sign in service status }, "ads_service": { "status": 1 } } } ], "client_info": [], "ARTIFACT_VERSION": "1" } 

Note. I use the Google login service to generate an oauth_client field value that you would not get if you only generated for GCM .

You do not need two different google-services.json files. Both will have identical configurations. These configuration files are unique for each project, regardless of how many services you have activated.

Before creating a configuration file, make sure that you have activated both services. The generated configuration file will be valid for both.
