Overview
--------

An Apex framework has been created to provide functionality for Google Cloud Print API callouts. 

This library extends the [Core](https://github.com/financialforcedev/ffhttp-core) library to provide access to Google Cloud Print API calls found at https://developers.google.com/cloud-print/.

Samples demonstrating the use of this library can be found [here](https://github.com/financialforcedev/ffhttp-googlecloudprint-samples).

Key Features
------------

+ Apex Google Cloud Print API


Configuration
-------------

This section explains how to create a connection between Salesforce and Google Cloud Print using the packages described above.

Make sure that the [Core](https://githubsfdeploy.herokuapp.com?owner=financialforcedev&repo=ffhttp-core) and [Google Cloud Print](https://githubsfdeploy.herokuapp.com?owner=financialforcedev&repo=ffhttp-googlecloudprint) packages have been deployed to your Saleforce organisation.

###Create an app in Google

1. Log in to your Google account.
2. Go to https://console.developers.google.com/project and select **Create Project**.
3. Enter a project name and ok the dialog.
4. Select the hyperlink for the project name that you just created.
5. Select **Credentials**.
6. Select **Create new Client ID**.
7. Select **Web application**.
8. Set the **Authorized Javascript Origins** url to the URL of the Salesforce organisation e.g. https://eu3.salesforce.com.
9. Set the **Authorized Redirect URIs** to the same as above with *apex/connector* appended: e.g. https://eu3.salesforce.com/apex/connector.
10. Make sure you know the **Client Id** and **Client Secret** as they will be needed later.
11. Select the **Consent screen**.
12. Enter a **Product Name** and save.

###Create a Connector in Salesforce

This requires the [OAuth Sample App](https://githubsfdeploy.herokuapp.com?owner=financialforcedev&repo=ffhttp-core-samples) to be deployed.

1. Log in to your Salesforce organisation.
2. Select the **OAuth Sample App**.
3. Select **Connector Types** then **New**.
4. Enter a **Connector Type Name** e.g. Google Cloud Print.
5. Set the **Authorization Endpoint** to https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth. 
6. Set the **Token Endpoint** to https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token.
7. Set the **Client ID** to the client ID obtained earlier.
8. Set the **Client Secret** to the client secret obtained earlier.
9. Set the **Redirect URI** to the same URL as you set in step 9 in the Create an app in Google section.
10. Make sure that **Scope Required** is checked.
11. Set the **Scope** to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloudprint.
12. Set the **Extra Url Parameters** to **access_type=offline&approval_prompt=force**. Setting **access_type** to offline means that Google supplies a refresh token with the access token which is required if you do not wish to reauthenticate every time the access token expires.
13. **Save** the Connector Type.
14. Select **New Connector**.
15. Set the **Connector Name** and save. 
16. Select the Connector and then **Activate**. You will be directed to another Salesforce page that activates your connector.
17. Select **Authorize**. This will prompt you to log in to your Google account (if you are not already logged in) and then authenticate the scope provided earlier. Select **Accept** to authorize. 
18. Select **Save**. The connector is now ready for use.
