No. The package is abandoned (last release 2020-12-01, repository archived) with no active maintenance. Before installing, verify whether Google's main authentication libraries now include native reauth support, which would make this standalone library unnecessary. If you need reauth for Google services, check the current google-auth package first.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- This package is abandoned and may not work with current Google authentication libraries or modern Python versions.
- Verify compatibility before use.
- Low install friction with a single dependency (pyu2f), but the package is abandoned—last release was 2020-12-01 and the repository is archived.

What it is and what it does
google-reauth is a library that adds two-factor authentication (reauth) capability to Google's Python authentication libraries. It allows applications using Google's auth libraries to support end-user credentials protected by two-factor authentication. The library depends on pyu2f for U2F/FIDO2 support.
The package is explicitly positioned as primarily for Google internal use and Google Cloud Platform developers. It has been abandoned since late 2020 with no active maintenance, and its repository is archived. Before adopting it, you should verify whether Google's main authentication libraries now include reauth support natively, as this standalone library may no longer be the recommended approach.
Use it for
- Integrating two-factor authentication support into applications using Google's Python auth libraries for Google Cloud Platform.
- Adding reauth capability to legacy Google Cloud Python applications that predate native reauth support in google-auth.
- Supporting U2F/FIDO2 hardware keys alongside password-based two-factor authentication in Google-authenticated services.
