This broke as a result of http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~chromium-team/chromium-browser/yakkety-working/revision/1271

The solution is to change the API keys back to their previous values. The new key isn't trusted for the purposes of an endpoint used in the SAML auth flow.

Patrick, we're not changing the keys back. It's impossible. The old keys were abused by someone and we lost Google API access. We have to fix this another way.

Alright, I'll look into updating the whitelist to reflect the new keys.
