Need to use google plus authentication in our website.

[Anurakt_Awasthi]

We need to integrate the google plus login feature in our website. We have been able to get google plus login button and a response with user details as described in steps here https://developers.google.com/+/web/signin/add-button.

What i need next is to persist this user as CQ granite user and how to use this user session for further authentication purposes. 

Any pointers in this regard will be helpful.

I assume that you are using OAUTH for authentication, take a look at OOTB Facebbok/Twitter authentication handler. You have to create custom authentication handler to achieve this.

AEM does not integrate directly with AEM; however, it should be doable by creating an authentication OSGi service which supports the TOTP RFC-6238 protocol (Time based One Time Password)

Here are some good starting points

1. Creating custom authentication handler in AEM:

2. Implementing Java Authenticator Server for Google Authenticator:
