This fixed it for me as well! Turning off ‘bot fight mode’ in cloudflare under ‘security’ → bots

I didn’t even think about Cloudflare blocking it. Thanks!

I try to stay anonymous most of the time. But after several months on being unable to configure Google Home I found out what was wrong with my setup so I had to create an account to share it.

Everything was fine, except that my firewall had a GEO IP blocking. So it was letting me sign in but blocking Google Requests. When disabled the Geo IP firewall rule voilá… IT WOOOORKS

So happy!

Thank you!
Adding an OAuth consent screen solved it for me as well.

Bot fight mode in Cloudflare got me!! As soon as I switched it off I was able to link it. I had all this working years ago but it had messed up and I finally got around to troubleshooting more today. Thanks!
