I can't authorize sending emails

[kurokirasama]

Hey, I tried adding this:

function sendLog(newvideos){
  var recipient = Session.getActiveUser().getEmail();
  var subject = 'YT2Discord Log: ' + newvideos + 'new videos.';
  var body = Logger.getLog();
  MailApp.sendEmail(recipient, subject, body);  
}

When running a script, I'm usually asked for permissions, but here I'm not, and therefore getting this error message:

Exception: You do not have permission to call Session.getActiveUser. Required permissions: https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email
sendLog @ sendLog.gs:2
updatePlaylists @ Code.gs:200

Sometimes google apps script is just finicky with the permissions dialog, have you tried running it again after some time?

You might also need to add the scope to the manifest.

FYI, here's a way to force the authorize permissions dialog: https://stackoverflow.com/a/52276300, run this and then call any other function.
