More granular Google Account permissions with Google OAuth and APIs- Google Developers Blog

What this post added

This post introduces the ability to request more granular permissions for Google Account access via OAuth 2.0 and Google APIs. Previously, developers requested broad scopes. Now, they can request specific permissions for individual data types (e.g., specific contact fields, calendar event details) through the Google Identity Services APIs. This enhances user privacy and control by allowing them to grant access only to the data their application truly needs.
