Can no longer edit in Google Docs: Google OAuth login failure

As the title: if I attempt to edit a spreadsheet in Google Docs, I get a login form from Google, with 2FA, and Google then tells me that "This app is blocked. This app tried to access sensitive info in your Google Account. To keep your account safe, Google blocked this access."

My installed modules are:

vserver # java -jar alfresco-mmt.jar list ../webapps/alfresco.war 
   -    Title:        Alfresco / Google Docs Integration
   -    Version:      4.0.0-M1
   -    Title:        Alfresco Office Services Module
   -    Version:      1.6.2-A3
   -    Title:        Alfresco Share Services AMP
   -    Version:      21.16
vserver # java -jar alfresco-mmt.jar list ../webapps/share.war
   -    Title:        Alfresco / Google Docs Share Module
   -    Version:      4.0.0-M1

Is there a fix? Presumably this is related to Google's move to OAuth 2.0?

After going back through this project's history, it's not obvious that Google drive integration ever worked, so maybe this is out first test... not sure.

Anyway, I've now spent a lot of time on Google, and the docs, and it seems to me that Google Drive integration has been deliberately disabled in the Community Edition. I can get the credentials for a Google app to allow an OAuth 2 login, but there's no information on what to with the credentials. CE has no 'Google Docs console' to enter the client secret. All the documentation assumes that you have the Enterprise Edition. I have a few search hits for people who had exactly the same problem over the past couple of years, but who found no solution.

TL;DR: is Google Drive/Docs integration supported in the Community Edition?
