10.13 Scopes and Verification
We do not recommend adding scopes to your Beehive API project. OAuth 2.0 verification is sufficient for the three scopes employed by Beehive and results in essentially immediate approval of your application by Google.
The data collected by Beehive requires three scopes:
userinfo.profile – Collects publicly available personal information.
userinfo.email – Collects users’ email addresses.
analytics.readonly – Shares analytics data with a client service which in this case is Beehive.
Adding scopes to your Beehive API project can broaden the type of data collected, but doing so may also trigger a higher verification standard that prevents immediate creation of the required credentials or places limits on Beehive until the verification process is complete. The verification process for highly sensitive scopes can take weeks.
