A lot of orgs will (for security reasons) treat your Google OAuth login, and a email+password login as two distinct accounts, even if they are on the same email address.

So it is possible that if Google shuts your account, and you migrate your email to a different provider - you will still lose access to your service account.



Well, that's one reason why using Google SSO wasn't on my list of things to do.


Misread your comment, my bad.
