To define the Google OAuth scopes for authorization in Convex, you can customize the Google provider configuration when setting up your authentication. Here's how you can do it:

1. In your auth configuration file (typically auth.ts or similar), import the Google provider:

import Google from "@auth/core/providers/google";

2. When configuring the convexAuth function, you can customize the Google provider by passing an object with the authorization parameter:

export const { auth, signIn, signOut, store } = convexAuth({
  providers: [
    Google({
      authorization: {
        params: { scope: "your desired scopes here" },
      },
    }),
    // Other providers...
  ],
  // Other configuration options...
});

3. Replace "your desired scopes here" with the specific Google OAuth scopes you want to request, separated by spaces.

For example, if you want to request access to the user's profile and email, you might set it up like this:

Google({
  authorization: {
    params: { scope: "<https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile> <https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email"> },
  },
})

This approach allows you to customize the OAuth scopes requested from Google during the authentication process.

Remember to ensure that the scopes you're requesting are appropriate for your application's needs and comply with Google's OAuth policies.
