Google Play deployment with security enabled?

I'm having an issue trying to deploy my app on Google Play (I haven't even started Apple yet!).  My app is a secure app, requiring you to login with one of the authentication providers.  I set up a GMail address for this purpose, however, when the Google App review people use it, it blocks them and sends me an email asking if it was me.   The reviewer then marks the app as failed review as they could not log in.

I tried creating a Dropbox account, but it also wants to send me a code when an unknown device tries to log in.   How has anyone else gotten around this problem?  

You would think Google would have a way around that when the reviewer is testing.

Too bad that AppSheet doesn't fully provide for app store deployments.

Did you solve your problem?   Were you able to publish your app?

No -- never got any response from Google Support, Play Support, etc.  They are not interested in supporting apps developed with their own tool.

It seems like i found the issue, not sure tho...   Since security filtered apps require Oauth, it is necessary to add it as a way to create an account.  (I'm aware it doesn't automatically creates a user for the app.)  Now that i added Oauth as a way to log in it allows me to send the closed testing link to my testers and changed the Production status as inactive.  That is a win in my book

But...  i'm not sure if this test with 20 testers for 14 days will succed or i'll hit a wall at some point. I'm not so sure about paying for 20 appsheet licences and wait 14 days just to find out. 

Hope this helps you.
