Authorize credentials for a desktop application
|
|
To authenticate as an end user and access user data in your app, you need to create one or more OAuth 2.0 Client IDs. A client ID is used to identify a single app to Google's OAuth servers. If your app runs on multiple platforms, you must create a separate client ID for each platform.
|
|
|
|
In the Google Cloud console, go to Menu menu > APIs & Services > Credentials.
|
|
|
|
Go to Credentials
|
|
Click Create Credentials > OAuth client ID.
|
|
Click Application type > Desktop app.
|
|
In the Name field, type a name for the credential. This name is only shown in the Google Cloud console.
|
|
Click Create. The OAuth client created screen appears, showing your new Client ID and Client secret.
|
|
Click OK. The newly created credential appears under OAuth 2.0 Client IDs.
|
|
Save the downloaded JSON file as credentials.json, and move the file to your working directory.
