Connecting the API #11

Closed robertrosman closed 10 years ago

robertrosman commented 10 years ago

I'm having some trouble getting this all set up. It seems like I have to both generate an OAuth secret and API key, is that correct?

I've tried that and entered both, but I'm only getting a 401 error in the browser. I like the expanded explanation in the README on this point, but the last action, "enter the needed information" is a bit vague ;)

Alright, figured it out. Proposing the following additional information to README:

7. Click the "Generate new Client ID" under Oauth.
8. Select "Installed application -> Other"
9. Make sure you've chosen product name and email adress under the "Consent screen".
10. Run ./tasky.py and enter the clientID, client secret and API key.

Hey, thanks for the feedback and glad you figured it out. I'd be happy to merge that change in if you'd make it a pull request.
