The provided access token must have the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.user.readonly scope.

Apps Script

google-domain-user-picker can also be used within a Google Apps Script add-on with some additional setup. To use this component in your Apps Script add-on:

Include the element and the webcomponents shim. These must be served over https.

<script src="https://example.com/webcomponentsjs/webcomponents-lite.js"></script>
<link rel="import" href="https://example.com/google-domain-user-picker/google-domain-user-picker.html">

In your Code.gs, create a function that returns the user's access_token.

function accessToken() {
  return ScriptApp.getOAuthToken();
}

On your client side javascript, acquire this token via

google.script.run.withSuccessHandler(function(accessToken) {
  document.querySelector('google-domain-user-picker').setAttribute('access-token', accessToken);
}).accessToken();

An important note is that to request the https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.user.readonly scope, your Apps Script add-on must pretend to access that service through Apps Script itself.

To do this, follow this guide to enable the AdminDirectory service.

Then create a function in Code.gs like so:

function fakeAdminDirectoryCall() {
  AdminDirectory.Users.list();
}

There's no need to ever run that function, unless you'd like to; google-domain-user-picker handles talking to the Admin Directory API.
