NodeJS passport How to migrate project from Google+ sign in to Google sign In?

Few days back, I had received a message from google that they are removing their Google+ Api's. Is there any way I can migrate the project using passportJS. What are the required steps?

Passport has support for Google, which is just an oauth provider. If this is what you've been using, then the transition should be decent, cause the Google+ Platform Login seems to be an oauth provider as well. So at best you'd be looking at switching some keys and some URLs.

See their migration guide for tips about migrating from one to the other.

You might need to do a data migration as well at some point - would ids for users from one platform carry over to the other platform? You need to look into this as well.
