Add a shared setup guide covering project creation, enabling per-connector APIs, the Service Usage Consumer grant that per-user OAuth requires on the quota project, OAuth client creation, and a service-account option. Wire the existing Google MCP server pages (Drive, Analytics, Analytics Admin) to the guide and call out the quota-project grant they previously omitted — the missing grant caused per-user tool calls to fail with PERMISSION_DENIED.

…copes Expand the Google Cloud project setup guide with the concrete reference needed to actually provision a project: the API service ID for each connector plus gcloud commands to enable and list them, and a per-connector OAuth scope reference (collapsible) covering Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, Forms, Drive Activity, Meet, and Chat.

- Add Google Analytics and Google Analytics Admin to the API/service-ID table, the gcloud enable example, and the OAuth scopes reference, so the page covers what the linked Analytics connector pages point to. - Add a "Before you begin" prerequisites section. - Tag the two plain code blocks as text. - Add "Google hasn't verified this app" / test-user guidance (consent-screen note + troubleshooting row). - Note that connectors without a dedicated page use the standard register flow; soften the billing step; note scope changes require reconnect; rename the troubleshooting heading.

What
Adds a shared Google Cloud project setup guide for the Google MCP servers, and wires the existing Google connector pages to it.
product/admin/mcp-server/google-cloud-project-setup.mdx— one guide every Google MCP server shares. Covers:PERMISSION_DENIED,SERVICE_DISABLED, redirect-URI mismatch, restricted-scope verification)docs.json.Why
The existing Google MCP server pages explain enabling the API and creating an OAuth client, but not the quota project dimension. With per-user OAuth, each user is the caller Google checks, and without the Service Usage Consumer role on the quota project their tool calls fail with
PERMISSION_DENIED. This guide captures that once, cross-connector, instead of repeating it per page.Testing
mint broken-links— none of the files in this PR are flagged; all internal links and in-page anchors resolve.docs.jsonvalidated as JSON.<Steps>, action-led opener, root-relative links).check-ui-labels.py— C1 UI labels (Project ID, per-user OAuth, Grant access, Domain-wide delegation, Add new, JSON key) match the frontend; remaining bold labels are Google Cloud Console UI (external, expected).Notes / out of scope
mint broken-linksalso surfaced pre-existing parse/link issues in unrelated files (developer/error-codes.mdx,rap/cel-expressions/env-user-attribute.md, and a few/docs/-prefixed links) that are not touched here — happy to address separately.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
