Did you complete step 1 correctly and save the file as instructed?
@tenleftfingers It seems like you did not add the credentials.json file into working directory as instructed?
I was sure I put it in the right place, but I'll try again and come back (can't get to it this week). Thank you.

i am also facing the same issue when i developed a python script it worked and now i am opening it after few months it is showing: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'credentials.json'
is there anyway to regenerate the credential ?
[solved] I provided full path of credential and it worked. i guess my editor has parent folder of my project as its main folder.
I am also having this issue. The first comment in this ticket says the following: "Did you complete step 1 correctly and save the file as instructed?"
Step one is "To install the Google client library for Python". I see no instructions to save a file. Am I missing something here?
I was having the same problem. It looks like it's in the Prerequisites step now. On the Python Quickstart instructions page, https://developers.google.com/sheets/api/quickstart/python?authuser=3:
Underneath the note box that reads, "Note: For this quickstart, you are enabling the 'Google Sheets API'." is a bullet point that reads, "Authorization credentials for a desktop application. To create credentials for a desktop application, refer to Create credentials." With a link on the last two words, "Create credentials." This will take you to another page with some instructions that will eventually create the JSON file. Be sure to rename the file once it's downloaded to credentials.json.
I'm having the same problem and I already rename the json file to credentials.json but it still shows the error. Can anyone advise me what I should do?
It sounds like the computer can't find it, so it's likely in the wrong folder. Make sure it's in the working directory or that you change the filepath to wherever it's saved on your computer.
How do know where is my working directory?
Alright, I figured it out. You need to jump a few hoops to download the JSON file (Remember to rename it to credentials.json)
1) Go to this link https://console.cloud.google.com/ 2) Create credential from

Follows this guy's step
I'm running pip and python from the Anaconda Prompt on my Windows 10 PC. I've 2 Google Drives running on virtual drives G and H. I've done Step 1 and 2 from https://developers.google.com/apps-script/api/quickstart/python.
When I got to Step 3, I got this error:
(base) C:\Users\Max\Downloads>python quickstart.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "quickstart.py", line 81, in <module>
main()
File "quickstart.py", line 45, in main
'credentials.json', SCOPES)
File "C:\Users\Max\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\google_auth_oauthlib\flow.py", line 201, in from_client_secrets_file
with open(client_secrets_file, "r") as json_file:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'credentials.json'
In the quickstart.py file, I've tried changing this:
flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file('credentials.json', SCOPES)
To this:
flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file('C:\Users\Max\Downloads\credentials.json', SCOPES)
And to this:
flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file('G:\My Drive\Google Sheets\credentials.json', SCOPES)
I've a copy of credentials.json at both locations, but both didn't work. I've tried setting the Windows Path variable to include G:\My Drive\Google Sheets, but that didn't work either. I also did this from the command prompt based on these instructions: https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/getting-started#windows.
set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="G:\My Drive\Google Sheets\credentials.json"
But that didn't work too.
I then tried the same steps with new credentials.json and quickstart.py based on instructions from: https://developers.google.com/sheets/api/quickstart/python.
I got a similar error:
(base) G:\My Drive\Google Sheets>python quickstart.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "quickstart.py", line 54, in <module>
main()
File "quickstart.py", line 31, in main
'credentials.json', SCOPES)
File "C:\Users\Max\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\google_auth_oauthlib\flow.py", line 201, in from_client_secrets_file
with open(client_secrets_file, "r") as json_file:
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'credentials.json'
Does anyone know how to resolve this? Is there a way to set the working directory?
My problem has been resolved. It arised from a typo in the filename of the json file. I had mistakenly added an extra json to the filename, thereby causing the error: credentials.json.json.
download the file and rename
Rather than hard coding the path names (which change if you copy the file elsewhere), you should try getting the current directory path. Changing the code from line 31 as follows should solve the issue.
CURR_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) print(CURR_DIR) credential_file=str(CURR_DIR)+'/credentials.json' flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file( credential_file, SCOPES)
if you rename the file to Credentials.json in windows you will find the name will be credentials.json.json in the cli window. rename the file to credentials.json in cli.
I resolved this by simply pointing to the full path for the file:
credsPath = os.path.expanduser("~/Desktop/Kargo/Development/Python/KargoPy/modules/credentials.json")
Expected Behavior
Browser window should open requesting authorisation
Actual Behavior
No browser opens. Error logged to console: $ python quickstart.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "quickstart.py", line 52, in
