setting google push notifications result to error 401 Unauthorized WebHook callback channel

I am trying to use the drive API with push notifications that let me watch for changes to my file.

i follow the guide form google.

my steps :

Step 1: Verify that you own the domain done

google search console

Step 2: Register your domain done (i tried with multiple URL)

google domain verification

Creating notification channels

this is a simple node server for the webhook that i have deploy on the google app engine.

/* jshint node: true */
'use strict';

const key = require('./SBSWideDomainDev.json');
const google = require('googleapis');
const express = require('express');
var path = require("path");
const logging = require('./logging');

const app = express();

app.enable('trust proxy');

app.post('/notification', (req, res, next) => {
    logging.info(res.body);
    res.status(200).json(res.body);
});

if (module === require.main) {
    var test = 8080;
    const server = app.listen(test, () => {
        const port = server.address().port;
        console.log(`App listening on port ${port}`);
    });
}

and i use live demo on the google page for file.watch

fileId : "some FileId",
request body:
{
  "type": "web_hook",
  "address": "https://notif-dot-sullivan-business-solution-dev.appspot.com/notification",
  "id": "e64d0c44-f9a2-4db8-8d21-94ee0904dcb7"
}

Response:

{
 "error": {
  "errors": [
   {
    "domain": "global",
    "reason": "push.webhookUrlUnauthorized",
    "message": "Unauthorized WebHook callback channel: https://notif-dot-sullivan-business-solution-dev.appspot.com/notification"
   }
  ],
  "code": 401,
  "message": "Unauthorized WebHook callback channel: https://notif-dot-sullivan-business-solution-dev.appspot.com/notification"
 }
}

I absolutely don't have an idea where the problem is, i had follow the google guide exactly. And it's been three days i'm working on it.

(sorry for the bad english)

Correct me if I am wrong - but I have used Goolge Drive API and to be able to successfully make request I had to generate OAuth token for my registered application. Have you registered one ? If not see here how to authenticate your application, google provides different ways to do it https://developers.google.com/drive/v3/web/about-auth.

After obtaining a token you should add it to your request as header property.

'Authorization': 'Bearer '.

Also keep in mind that google Oauth tokens expire in 1 hour after their generation and you should regenerate it.
