I can't see the that corresponding bug. You do not have permission to view the requested page. Reason: User is not allowed to view this issue

I removed the view restrictions on the other bug, so you can see the discussion there. Copying the relevant comment here: We locked down access to chromesync scoped refresh tokens to address a security vulnerability. When we did so, we knew that this may break some 3P browsers on Android which made use of chromesync scoped refresh tokens to leverage Chrome Sync for their users. Chrome Sync has never officially been supported for 3P browsers. We do not intend to create a solution by which 3P browsers can whitelist themselves or their users so that they can get chromesync scoped refresh tokens. Note that Chromium for Android is technically considered a 3P browser. Marking as WontFix, accordingly. |
