[Answer]-Google Oauth2 provider not implemented

Never used django-social-friends-finder, but I guess it calls https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me/people/visible at some point to retrieve your friends list. But to access that API you need to specify the correct scope, that way your access token has permissions for it. To do so in django-social-auth define this setting:

GOOGLE_OAUTH_EXTRA_SCOPE = [
    'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.login'
]

Also this snippet shows how you can retrieve your friends list:

import requests

user = User.objects.get(...)
social = user.social_auth.get(provider='google-oauth2')
response = requests.get(
    'https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me/people/visible',
    params={'access_token': social.extra_data['access_token']}
)
friends = response.json()['items']
