Title: Incorrect Google Authorization Code Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Incorrect Google Authorization Code * Resolved [Paul](https://wordpress.org/support/users/paulcass82/) * (@paulcass82) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/) * I keep getting the error that the Google Authorization Code is incorrect when trying to authorize for the Google Console. This has worked fine on all my other websites but no matter how many times I try to create a new code none of them will work. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 28 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/page/2/?output_format=md) * [tonybearblog](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tonybearblog/) * (@tonybearblog) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406027) * Same here – entering the authorization code from my Google Console gives me an“ incorrect” message * [DrKokai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drkokai/) * (@drkokai) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406155) * Same here, do you found an answer? * [ttremain](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ttremain/) * (@ttremain) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406159) * This is what I came here to find too…. My message differs just a little bit. I get “There were no profiles found” * [Marc Shade](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marcshade/) * (@marcshade) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406166) * Same happening to me on all my sites on a particular server. All my sites on other servers are working fine. I even removed all the firewall rules on the server having the issue with no luck. * May have something to do with not having a proper SSL cert? I was having issues with JetPack along these lines in the past and had to put a line in the wp conf file saying not use SSL when connecting to JetPack API. * [artefacts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/artefacts/) * (@artefacts) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406189) * It’s happening to me, too.

If anyone has knowledge on finding that Google authorisation code URL, I think that would be really helpful. * Good luck 🙂 * [artefacts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/artefacts/) * (@artefacts) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406206) * I was able to get a code, but it is incorrect, apparently. I tried adding my second email address (which is what I use on my website) and I still got an incorrect code. I’m using Chrome. * [DrKokai](https://wordpress.org/support/users/drkokai/) * (@drkokai) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406207) * Hi everyone! * finally, i add the code in the header and is working well, but i saw one thing, XML Sitemaps also dont work! * Can you test it? and let me know * i will take out the plugin and try again. * [kuurt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kuurt/) * (@kuurt) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406209) * I’m also getting the message “there were no profiles found” when entering the authorization code. I’ve tried using a different email, but it didn’t make a difference. * [susanalynn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/susanalynn/) * (@susanalynn) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406211) * I have multiple websites and when I entered the code, it brought up the url of one of my other sites. It asked me to save profile or re-authenticate. I couldn’t type in the url of my current site. For me, I’m sure this is operator error.

I tried everything I could think of to no avail. * I finally had to disable the SEO XML sitemap functionality and go back to “Google Sitemap” for the 9 that failed. * [Siva](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sivasankar/) * (@sivasankar) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/incorrect-google-authorization-code/#post-6406237) * Yes, Incorrect Google Authorization Code.
