This library simplifies using Google's various server-to-server authentication
mechanisms to access Google APIs.
.. |pypi| image:: https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/google-auth.svg
:target: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/google-auth
Installing
----------
You can install using `pip`_::

Extras
------
google-auth has few extras that you can install. For example::
$ pip install google-auth[pyopenssl]
Note that the extras pyopenssl and enterprise_cert should not be used together because they use conflicting versions of `cryptography`_.

Supported Python Versions
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Python >= 3.8
**NOTE**:
Python 3.8 and Python 3.9 were marked as `unsupported`_ by the python community in
October 2024 and October 2025, respectively.
We recommend that all developers upgrade to Python 3.10 and newer as soon as
they can. Support for end-of-life Python runtimes will be removed from this
library in future updates.
Previous releases that support end-of-life Python versions will continue to be available
for download, but future releases will only target supported versions.
