In order to use Google APIs you will need to authenticate, this steps guide you through the process:
- Create a project in console.developers.google.com
https://console.developers.google.com
-
Create google service account. 0. Go to https://console.developers.google.com/projectselector/apis/credentials and create a new project.
-
Create credentials.
- In this first version, i will explain how to deal with Services accounts, so select "Service account key".
-
Create a service account.
- Download the .json file and KEEP IT SAFE.
-
Now you have your service account created inside your new project.
-
Copy your "user id" in "Manage service accounts" to use it later.
- It looks like this one: "first-service-account@example-id-175820.iam.gserviceaccount.com"
-
Go to your dashboard screen and go to "ENABLE APIS AND SERVICES" to "unlock" the desired API calls. In our example, we will just enable "Google sheets API".
-
Create a folder named .Credentials and store newly downloaded credentials renaming them with service_credentials.json
