When I login with auth0 the token I get from google does not contain gmail scope..

Checking token here :  
[https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/tokeninfo?access\_token={token}](https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/tokeninfo?access_token=%7Btoken%7D)

getting response :  
{  
“issued\_to”: “XXXXXX”,  
“audience”: “XXXXXX”,  
“user\_id”: “XXXXXX”,  
**“scope”: “[https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email](https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email) [https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile](https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile) [https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom](https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom)”,**  
“expires\_in”: 3579,  
“email”: “[XXXXXX@gmail.com](mailto:XXXXXX@gmail.com)”,  
“verified\_email”: true,  
“access\_type”: “offline”  
}

Even though when I login it asks me for permission to “manage” my email, It doesn’t give me a token I could use, This is critical for users to be able to give me at least compose/send scope permission.

btw : I have joined already the google group for unverified apps for testing purposes,  
So it should work for my account.
