I feel like my email was used by anonymous people, can I get the list of devices that connected my Gmail account. Not just recent, every device which used my mail account with their ip address , device type and date time. I am really worried. Anyone please help.
Regards
Jay
You can get a list of currently logged in devices, but I don't think they provide an IP address just a GEO location and a device type. Here is a link. Also, if you are concerned with others using your account, change your password (use a strong, preferably random password) and activate 2FA for your Gmail. Here is link for 2FA activation.

When I try to create a login to https://jackhenry.dev/portal/ with my work email I get a 401 from https://jackhenry.dev/portal/oauth2callback/?state=%....
One of my recent x-request-ids is 6a17801cc34176c4c680910d1a8bfe3d. Is there something my organization has to enable with the google account to get this to work?
It appears that my personal email would allow me to generate an account. Thus I think it may be something that my organization may have set.
For years, I've been using the email addresses MyEmail#mydomain.com and myemail#mydomain.com as if they are identical. And most of the time this is true. However now the OAuth verification process for the project seems to be failing because Google treats these as two separate identities.
The GCP project owner is MyEmail#mydomain.com. In the OAuth consent screen, I've set mydomain.com as the sole authorized domain for my app. And I use myemail#mydomain.com as my identity in Google Search Console when verifying that I am the owner of mydomain.com.
I got an email from the "The Google Cloud Trust & Safety Team", saying that the owner of the GCP project and the identity of the owner of the authorized domain do not match! The only reason for this seems to be the case of the email names, because everything else appears set up properly.
MY QUESTION: How can I change the GCP project owner from MyEmail#mydomain.com to myemail#mydomain.com?
It seems that I need to change one or the other. I would rather change the GCP owner to myemail#mydomain.com. But I can not get that to happen. I followed the instructions in Grant or Revoke Role.
I go to IAM -> Permissions - Add. I enter the email without the caps & ignore their suggestion to use the one with caps. But in the "Select a role" dropdown, it shows "Owner" as a role "Currently used". I select it anyway and click Save. But IAM -> Permissions never get changed.
I've thought of changing the owner first to someone completely different and then to the lower case email. But that might involve billing emails changing, etc.
EDIT - As a result of trying to add myemail#mydomain.com to the project, I received an email at that address from GCP, asking me to join the project. I accepted the request, but IAM is still only showing MyEmail#mydomain.com as being on the project.
Is this really the case that myemail#mydomain.com and MyEmail#mydomain.com are separate GCP identities? Might there be a different reason for Trust & Safety to think they're not the same?
If I respond to the T&S email, describing my issue, will a real person actually read it, or will the same automated test be run again to check the issue?
Resolution: I responded to the T&S email, explaining what was going on with the upper/lower case letters in my email address.
Today I got a reply: "Request Granted. Your project is now verified for ....". That's great! But I wonder if I will forever be first rejected for the same reason on all new projects that I create. It appears that the final solution is likely finding a way to change my logon email on GCP to one without capital letters.
Since you mention that you are never asked to select a different profile when logging into your account, then it should be the exact same account using the actual same GAIA ID as mentioned by DazWilkin, so there should be no difference within the GCP console between MyEmail#mydomain.com and myemail#mydomain.com.
Google usually recognizes an email address in both forms as the same account, although there are some exceptions across their products (I have had a similar experience with email addresses from Google Groups). I think this is one of those particular exceptions.
I would strongly recommend transferring the project ownership to a totally different account within your domain, then waiting a couple of hours due to Google's "propagation time" across services, and transferring the ownership back to the account using the format myemail#mydomain.com.
Now answering to:
If I respond to the T&S email, describing my issue, will a real person actually read it, or will the same automated test be run again to check the issue?
They are actually a team of people, but they tend to use a lot of canned responses, so I would definitively recommend being very specific with your choice of words when responding to their emails otherwise, you may not get a relevant response. You may also try to explain this to them via email to see if there is an actual problem with the email address or if it is just them or the system being extremely picky when checking the email address.
I think you basically have it covered. But it is important that on new Owner's account, you will need to go to "Billing" in the "hamburger" menu and either link the project to an existing billing account or set up a new Billing account to link the project.
You may also need to delete the old project owner to avoid confusion.
Is there any reason a site login needs a username/password? If an email address or cell number is supplied a text or email could be sent back at which point you would click on the link. Would this be enough to be considered authenticated by the site. Much like a password reset email/text, except you would be logedin instead.
Maybe this is not the correct forum to post this.
But, usually an username gives more sense of "ownership" / sense of belonging to an account.
Also for security reasons! I'd rather not give my personal email to everyone or in some places.
And if they already ask my email, I would imply my username is the information other users have access to, and not necessarily my email.
e.g. a Forum / Payments / etc...
Is it possible to find the rough location of a user on the web without using the html5 geolocation stuff which brings up a box asking for the user's permission? I have tried MaxMind but it seems pretty poor.
Your webserver (apache or somethigng like that) gets the users IP-adress when he sends a request to your server. There are some services in the web that can tell you the country and city of that address. Google for "location from ip address" to find those services. That is the best you can do without asking the user.
Everything more accurate MUST be explicitely allowed by the user himself for legal reasons. If a user finds out that you are tracking his position without having asked him, you can go to jail!!
I've used IPlocation.net They provide a list of several providers and test them against your own IP to see if they get it correct.
I personally went with IPinfo.io
I'm busy to enable login stuff via facebook oauth on my website, but the only thing I want to get is the email of the user.
I saw in dev docs the 'scope=email' but, it seem's mandatory for the user to allow access to anything about him.
is there's a way to ask him to grant access only on his email ?
No. The bare minimum that your app will request from the user is his Basic Information, followed by your extended permissions (in your case, his email address).
nope. email is a so called extended permission. so you have to get the basic set of data of the user. (like: name, fbid, gender, locale).
