i am trying to implement google auth in andorid but it just keep giving me general_bad_request

// Android Manifest

        <activity
            android:name="io.appwrite.views.CallbackActivity"
            android:exported="true">
            <intent-filter android:label="android_web_auth" android:autoVerify="true">
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

                <data android:scheme="appwrite-callback-myprojectcode" />

            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

// Conpanion Object

    object Config {
        // Change below values to match your Appwrite project
        const val HOST = "cloud.appwrite.io"
        const val PROJECT = "--my--project--code"

        const val TAG = "TrashActivity"

        // DO NOT mutate below values
        const val ENDPOINT = "https://$HOST/v1"
        const val CALLBACK = "appwrite-callback-$PROJECT"
    }

// Implementation

Kotlin

        val client = Client(applicationContext)
            .setEndpoint(Config.ENDPOINT)
            .setProject(Config.PROJECT)
            .setSelfSigned(true)

        val account = Account(client)
        binding.loginBtn.setOnClickListener {
            GlobalScope.launch {
                try {
                    account.createOAuth2Session(
                        activity = this@TrashActivity,
                        provider = OAuthProvider.GOOGLE,
                        success = "${Config.CALLBACK}://${Config.HOST}/auth/oauth2/success",
                        failure = "${Config.CALLBACK}://${Config.HOST}/auth/oauth2/failure"
                    )
                } catch (e: Exception) {
                    Log.d(TAG, "Exception: $e")
                }
            }
        }

Summary

Developers are facing 'general_bad_request' issue while implementing Google auth in Android. The issue might be related to the configuration in the AndroidManifest file or the specified endpoints in the companion object. To solve the issue, developers should ensure the correct configurations in the AndroidManifest and companion object, especially the callback URLs and project codes. Double-check the URLs in the success and failure parameters. Also, verify if the OAuth provider is correctly set to GOOGLE. Double-check all configurations and ensure they match the Appwrite project details.
