Il componente aggiuntivo funziona molto bene e devo dire che soddisfa a pieno le mie esigenze di avere rubriche perfettamente sincronizzate.
Unica nota dolente, come già scritto in altre recensioni, è la continua richiesta di autenticazione e di concessione dei permessi; la procedura è molto insistente e stà rischiando di compromettere l'utilizzo fluido dell'applicazione.
Nota di merito all'autore dell'applicazione che si è reso disponibile per un confronto e per cercare di risolvere il problema; speriamo si riesca a trovare una soluzione.

Thanks for Your review.
Hopefully the (Google?) issue will be solved anytime soon...

Grazie per la Tua recensione.
Speriamo che il problema (lato Google?) venga risolto al più presto...

It's been working well, but is it this or TbSync itself that keeps requiring me to authenticate?

I mean, almost every day, I get a pop-up that asks me to approve access, then I must to go into another room, grab my phone, and tap the number that matches the number in the pop-up. I never have my phone with me in my office where my PC is...

I think this is related to Google-4-TbSync (not TbSync), there are some tickets open about this issue, but I still haven't been able to understand where the real problem is (it doesn't happen to everyone).
You might want to subscribe to the specific issue in the GitHub page.

Work for TB128 is ongoing and a new version will be released soon...

Works fine, but is in permanent read only mode. Any changes i make in thunderbird do not transfer over to google despite not having the plugin in read only mode. Makes this plugin useless to me if i can not use TB as a source. Google calendar is not even listed as a possible event target.

Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (0.6.0) del componente aggiuntivo. 

Thanks for Your review.

The read-only mode is strongly suggested, but not mandatory. If it's fixed then something is wrong. Did you try removing and re-adding the account?

As per Google Calendar, it isn't and will never be supported, because other addons (or even TB itself) do the job perfectly. Google-4-TbSync only deals with contacts.

Has started syncing only one way, from server to client. Any addresses that were added to the Google address book using TB are deleted upon syncing. I've looked for any controls over sync behavior and can't find them in the add-on.

Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (0.6.0) del componente aggiuntivo. 

Thanks for Your review!

That is the indended behaviour: if You do a server->client synchronization, the client data are overwritten (i.e.: the local data becomes a copy of the server data).

This is what is happening since yesterday, 9 Jan 2024:
Authorisation Error
Error 400: invalid_request

You can't sign in to this app because it doesn't comply with Google's OAuth 2.0 policy for keeping apps secure.

You can let the app developer know that this app doesn't comply with one or more Google validation rules.

Thanks for Your comment.

However this isn't the proper place for tickets. Please report to https://github.com/zanonmark/Google-4-TbSync.
Also have a look at https://github.com/zanonmark/Google-4-TbSync/issues/62.

I'm using Google-4-TbSync since a while and it just works.

On another thunderbird instance I managed to sync google contacts with thunderbird adressbook without any add-on and it seems to work, too. Here is the tutorial video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vny1K_aUzCE&t=60s

I assume that it is possible with newer thunderbird versions and wasn't possible at the time Google-4-TbSync was initially developed.

Does the use of Google 4-TbSync have advantages over this? If not, my tendency would be to do without the add-on.

Thanks to the developers for the commitment and a response!

Yes, Google-4-TbSync also synchronizes groups, which seems to be impossible with CardDAV due to Google not properly supporting this protocol: https://github.com/zanonmark/Google-4-TbSync/wiki/Why-another-Google-synchronization-add-on

Ho bisogno di sincronizzare la mia rubrica TB sul mio account Gmail ed ho seguito le istruzioni installando Google-4-TbSync e TbSync. Per inserire il "nuovo account" su TbSync non riesco a capire come reperire le informazioni che chiede per Google Peoples API e cioè "ID Client" e "chiave segreta client". Come devo procedere? grazie mille

Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (0.6.0) del componente aggiuntivo. 

Thanks for Your review.

From the add-on page:
"
3) You also need some specific credentials by Google to use this add-on. Please refer to "How to generate your own Google API Console project credentials" [https://github.com/zanonmark/Google-4-TbSync/wiki/How-to-generate-your-own-Google-API-Console-project-credentials] for a step-by-step guide on how to generate them.
(And if this seems complicated, please blame Google, not me, as I'm forbidden from providing already built-in credentials...)

Thanks for the update which supports TB 115. No problems so far.

Please add support for TB115.
In the installation package, I edited the file manifest.json strict_max_version 115. Contacts from Google are imported into TB.

Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (0.5.2) del componente aggiuntivo. 

Thanks for Your review, and for Your hint.
I was waiting for TbSync to be upgraded, and now that it's out I'm upgrading Google-4-TbSync too, which will be released in this weekend.

Complimenti allo sviluppatore ma la parte per configurare le api di google è molto complessa. Personalmente ho trovato una guida per sincronizzare google contacts con la rubrica di thunderbird senza necessità di estensioni: https://community.peopleinside.it/d/356-sincronizzare-contatti-google-con-thunderbird-senza-estensioni. Ci ho impiegato 1 minuto alla faccia delle ore spese con la configurazioni di queste estensioni.

Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (0.5.2) del componente aggiuntivo. 

Thanks for Your review.

However CardDAV and Google's People API are two different beasts, the latter being more complete.
See FAQ for details.

And, as I said, configuring the credentials is quite hard but Google is the one to blame for this...

I'm getting this message when using TBsync:

Error 403: access_denied
The developer hasn’t given you access to this app. It’s currently being tested and it hasn’t been verified by Google. If you think you should have access, contact the developer.

My apologies, I've upped the review rating, assuming that it works well. I have not configured it correctly. So I'll try again.

I found my problem. I had forgotten to save the page after configuring the Test user, so it was missing. It is all working well now.

Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (0.5.2) del componente aggiuntivo. 

Thanks for Your review.

However, this is most certainly due to a misconfiguration on Your Google Cloud platform app: the "developer", here, is You who did not authorize Yourself.
Please follow the HOWTO again and grant Yourself the proper permissions.

This is NOT an issue on Google-4-TbSync side, and as such I don't think the low rating is deserved...

-- edit --

I'm glad everything works well!

It took a while for me to finally get around to the task but it was worth it.
I was using eudora forever and finally had to relent and go to thunderbird. I really did not want to have to resort to Outlook.

Works great so far.

Thanks.

A brilliant extension and the instructions on how to create the Google Client ID and secret were easy to follow. Seems to work fast and easy setup. TB 102.6.1 with Sync 0.5.2

Great add-on for synchronizing Google contacts in TB. With the provided detailed instructions set-up can be done easily, all worked at the first go. Also very fast. Running version 0.5.1 on TB 102.6.1. Thanks for the support!

Thanks for the addon. Works well with Thunderbird 91 and 102. Setting up the Google API was relatively straightforward, but it appears after it went public there is no way to edit it. I enabled full access before seeing the warning about setting read only, but I am only syncing calendars and so far no issues.

Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (0.5.1) del componente aggiuntivo. 

Thanks for Your review.

To change any option, just disable the account, change the option, then re-enable the account.

However, Google-4-TbSync only synchronizes contacts, no calendars.

Thank you so much! It's wonderful to have a solid solution for syncing Google Contacts with Thunderbird. The instructions for setting up Google were detailed and clear - a pleasure to use.

After a bit of hassle to create the appropriate credentials, Google not wanting to collaborate, it worked fine although quite slow with over 1700 contacts.
Well done.

Questa recensione riguarda una versione precedente (0.4.2) del componente aggiuntivo. 

Thanks for Your review!

Yes, 0.4.x is somewhat slower than 0.3.x, but I'm working on a revisited engine for 0.5.x to speed things up.
