Regarding the gDrive-Pega integration, we are looking for an alternate solution of "OAuth 2.0 - Offline access" authentication instead of service account authentication.

As per the google API documentation,  "OAuth 2.0 - Offline access" can be leveraged using a generic google account / technical account which can be used for the authentication for gDrive-Pega integration and this solution might be used for replacing the service account authorization. Google supports common OAuth 2.0 scenarios such as those for web server, client-side, installed, and limited-input device applications.  Please refer to below google api documentation link which describes the OAuth 2.0 - Offline Access mechanism.

https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/web-server#offline  

We have some queries on this-

1. "Is the OAuth 2.0 - Offline access" mechanism is currently supported in pega 8.3 version & google component ?

2. In case we need to customize to implement the "OAuth 2.0 - Offline Access" authorization mechanism in pega, what are the steps we need to follow ?
