Help on API_KEY

[glensc]

The readme is not much helpful:

[!] register your own API key and also replace API_KEY='AIzaSyC2q8yjciNdlYRNdvwbb7NEcDxBkv1Cass' in ass code and the agent setting [Agent_youtube_api_key] OR you will deplete the quota of requests in MY account and metadata will stop for ALL users using default settings.

Questions:

1. how to register API key, should give instructions like other tasks
2. what is "ass code"?

[ZeroQI]

1) Google it, it has nothing to do with the agent and can be easily found 2) Absolute Series Scanner. For this agent, you can now put it in agent settings instead

Sent you some motivation, can you write the youtube API key creation instructions?

I think the journey starts from here:

• https://developers.google.com/youtube/registering_an_application

From past experience, I think it involves creating a project and then an API token can be attached to the project. are there scopes one should be aware of then creating token?

For example (past experience) https://rclone.org/drive/:

1. Create a service account for example.com

• To create a service account and obtain its credentials, go to the Google Developer Console.
• You must have a project - create one if you don't.
• Then go to "IAM & admin" -> "Service Accounts".
• Use the "Create Credentials" button. Fill in "Service account name" with something that identifies your client. "Role" can be empty.
• Tick "Furnish a new private key" - select "Key type JSON".
• Tick "Enable G Suite Domain-wide Delegation". This option makes "impersonation" possible, as documented here: Delegating domain-wide authority to the service account
• These credentials are what rclone will use for authentication. If you ever need to remove access, press the "Delete service account key" button.
