How does Google Play Games work in different Unity scenes?

Question

Unity

I am writing a game on Unity, there are 2 scenes, the main menu and the scene with the mechanics and gameplay itself. In the main menu, there is a connection to Google Play Games, in the second scene, after the player loses, the result should go to the leaderboard, but this does not happen. The question is: does the connection to the GPS remain after the scene change and how to implement it correctly. I looked at the documentation and various sites, but did not find an answer (I use play-games-plugin-for-unity).
