In case you see the This app isn't verified page, there can be several reasons for that:

  • The way you configured the scopes in the app requires verification by Google and this hasn't been completed yet
  • The app is configured that it doesn't require verification by Google

Go to the Manage Consent Screen and edit your consent screen to allow for the Google verification process to verify your consent. On the edit page of the consent screen you will find a number of links and helpful information on how to deal with issues and the verification process. You can get more details on this verification process on the Unverified Apps page. You can click on Advanced and click on Go to CSVI (Unsafe) link to continue. In your case this will display the name of the app you have given in Google.
