So I have inherited a few projects at work that user php. I have no experience using php so of course have been struggling to fix a problem we found. At this point I am simply just trying to get the google id of who ever happens to be logged in when they visit the site. Weird thing is that some of the time my code works great and i get the google id, but it only works for some of the accounts we have tried, others just return null. The code below I am just trying to get who is signed in right, but I am so ignorant of how this all works that I can't tell what's wrong.

This is the error i get when it doesn't like the user for whatever reason. EDIT: This error is in the console. This page does nothing but show me who is logged in via the console.log.
code:401
data:undefined
error:{code: 401, data: undefined, message: "The request does not have valid authentication credentials."}
message:"The request does not have valid authentication credentials."
proto:Object
I have tried so many different things that I assume this code will be a conglomeration of a bunch of different approaches, sorry lol.
EDIT- Added more console.logs - edited above code to reflect this

I didn't really find this answer, my coworker did, but i figured I should post what we ended up getting to work.
gapi.auth.authorize({
'client_id': myClientId,
'scope': 'email',
'immediate': true
}, function(authResult) {
if (authResult['status']['signed_in']) {
// Update the app to reflect a signed in user
gapi.client.load('plus','v1', function(){
var request = gapi.client.plus.people.get({'userId': 'me'});
request.execute(function(resp) {
var userId = '<?php echo $_SESSION["userID"]; ?>';
if(userId == resp.id) {
onSuccess();
}
else {
onFailure();
}
});
});
}
else {
onFailure();
}
});
Instead of continuing through comments, I'll make some suggestions here and edit as you edit your question.
First of all, please copy the output of your console to your question. This will help us see what is happening thus far in the code.
edit 4:
I'm not familiar with the google apis you're working with, so my best advice would be test this code and if it returns logged in = true sometimes and false other times, ask a new question on stackoverflow with this simplified code. Tag it with javascript and google api (whatever the main tag is for it). Looking at answers like https://stackoverflow.com/a/33380879/3650835 your code is quite different. So my guess now is that the api calls you make need to be rewritten/aren't being called in the correct order. But give this simplified code a try, does it show signed in sometimes, sometimes not? If so, then we have narrowed down the problem enough for you to ask and probably get a response from someone really familiar with the google apis.
