error invalid client - unauthorized

[danixland]

Hello, I've installed gcalcli 4.5.0 through pip, I've created the google app and I've launched: gcalcli --client-id "myclientid" init

After visiting the page both on firefox and on chromium I receive the same python error:

oauthlib.oauth2.rfc6749.errors.InvalidClientError: (invalid_client) Unauthorized

I've completed the procedure in the browser but after returning to the console I see this error and I have no idea where to go from here.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Well, invalid client suggests something is wrong in the client project you're using from Google Cloud Console (or maybe with just the ID you supplied for it?), but unfortunately if the auth library doesn't work it doesn't surface a lot of clues about what went wrong beyond what you're seeing there.

There were some errors we were discussing in #628 but I think those had a different error message.

I've deleted the previous app and created a new one with new oauth credentials, I've done the whole procedure on chromium and now it worked.

I have no idea what went wrong yesterday but I've followed the same exact procedure. Anyway, this issue can be closed now Thanks for your help

Great! Feel free to report any further weirdness you do see.
