No way to add photos to an existing album #18

Exception in thread "main" com.google.api.gax.rpc.InvalidArgumentException: io.grpc.StatusRuntimeException: INVALID_ARGUMENT: No permission to add media items to this album. at com.google.api.gax.rpc.ApiExceptionFactory.createException(ApiExceptionFactory.java:49) at com.google.api.gax.grpc.GrpcApiExceptionFactory.create(GrpcApiExceptionFactory.java:72)

There isn't any scope which allows us to do this. It's a pain in the ass because there is no way to organize photos into existing albums.

Adding photos to existing albums is not supported by the Google Photos Library API.
