I would like to know how to enable users to sign into my website using their google account, and then be able to access information such as their display name and profile picture. Any advice you can give would be helpful, keep in mind I have already tried this, which did provide me with the information to add the button to the page but not how to access the information of the user once they are logged in.

Thanks in advance,
Jordan
