When I click the "Import" button in Hello, I get a pop-up Google error page, and no contacts are imported.

Entire error is below:

401. That’s an error.

Error: invalid_client

The OAuth client was not found. Request Details 

   scope=https://www.google.com/m8/feeds
   response_type=code
   redirect_uri=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob:auto
   client_id=no-google-oauth-api-clientid

That’s all we know.

Hi ChrisKouza , You may want to check to make sure that you are not blocking api. This should be done automatically when you authenticate to import however this is how it is done manually: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Loop/OAuth_Setup

Via this bug it may also be linux related: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1106854

In the meantime please try the manual set up in the wiki and follow that bug for updates, I apologize for the inconvenience!
