FedCM get() rejects with AbortError: The request has been aborted

Question

I'm trying to implement the new FedCM api using Google sign-in. I'm currently developing my website locally and facing an issue: to improve UX, a cooldown is set in place to prevent the site from showing the "login with google" dialog too often.

I'm ok with that except that during development, I want to log in and log out a lot of times to test callbacks, features, etc.

I tried deleting the cookies, but after a short time, when calling google.accounts.id.prompt(), I'm hit with FedCM get() rejects with AbortError: The request has been aborted.

My init code is:

window.onload = function () {
    google.accounts.id.initialize({
        client_id: 'myclientid.apps.googleusercontent.com',
        use_fedcm_for_prompt: true,
        callback: authenticationCallbackHandler
    });
    //google.accounts.id.prompt();
};

Writing google.accounts.id.prompt(); directly in the browser console works.

Is there any way around this?

I am assuming you are referring to the cool-down period when user clicks the Close X in the top-right corner of the prompt. For FedCM, different browser may have different settings on cool-down period or way to reset it. But for Chrome, you can reset the cooldown status by clocking the lock icon in the address bar and clicking Reset Permission button.
