I'm trying to create a playlist for all the videos on the AntsCanada YouTube channel and I'm wondering if this still works as well as a bit confused on what type of oauth client id I need. is it a web application, android, chrome extension, ios, TVs and limited input devices, desktop app, or universal windows platform. the command I'm running is: channel_to_playlist --secrets client_secrets.json UCONd1SNf3_QqjzjCVsURNuA PLm1vi4xzvNk1si3jzKEBIsbWRF6_bhqZi if someone would do this for me that would be great but I also wouldn't mind learning how to do it myself

Hi @BloxMaster3, I've pushed an update to ensure this script still works with Python 3.12 and the latest version of google-api-python-client and the YouTube API.

I've also updated the instructions in the readme regarding generating the client_secrets.json file.

I was able to add the first 192 of 732 videos from the channel you mentioned to a playlist before hitting the daily queries limit: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlgnub_DBR_DaASSEchp5VdLLixsAD15H

I'm surprised the script made so many requests. If I get some time I'll look into whether it can be optimised in some way. In the meantime you could run it over a few days since it will remember which videos have already been added.

Let me know if you run into any difficulties.
