Google’s TokenInfo Endpoint
Google’s endpoint for the Check ID step of OpenID Connect can be
used to validate any OAuth 2.0 token issued by Google. The endpoint at
https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/tokeninfo is a
simple read-only API. To get the scope and expiration date of a token,
make a HTTP request to the endpoint and pass an OAuth access token as the
access_token query parameter or an ID token as the
id_token parameter.
