I am trying to login to my Google work account. I get this OAuth error:

The authentication works fine on a regular browser.

The authentication works fine on a regular browser.

I found a workaround. For whatever reason, Google Hangout works fine. Sign in to that first, and then use the app menu on the top right of the hangout window to jump to other applications.

This workaround works....but only if you have one account (I was using 3 google accounts). Very helpful @mjasyal-z but not a perfect solution, at least for my use case.

I can confirm that the work around used by @mjasyal-z works . It appears that the login for hangouts occurs in the station application where as the login for gmail, calendar, and drive all open up the default web browser for login.

It works, but only if you use 1 single gmail account (unless others have managed to make it work with multiple).
