I have been attempting to setup the Google APIs to upload a video to YouTube.
I have gone to as basic a setup I can.
- Setup a CLI project in VS2017
- Use NuGet to install YouTube v3
- Copy the YouTube Sample code exactly as it is from here
- download my
client_secrets.jsonfrom the API page (both web and installed versions, the installed version is what I am using)
If I remove the try catch this is the detailed error I get
System.AggregateException occurred
HResult=0x80131500
Message=One or more errors occurred.
Source=mscorlib

If I set up the same code as a web project, and use my web keys, the page just hangs and does nothing.
I have however been able to use my web keys with the Javascript sample code, and it works fine.
My goal with the project I am working on is to have my user (from a password protected page) upload their video directly to my YouTube Account. I then store the video ID to re-embed back on my webpage. I want to do this without the user having to sign into a google account. So I will be storing my own access/authentication/refresh/etc token.... but I havent got that far yet.
I can't get passed the credential = await GoogleWebAuthorizationBroker.AuthorizeAsync() point, and I don't know why.
If I try using the web keys, the URL redirect will always fail because the port the VS uses is randomized so I can't add it to the 'Authorized redirect URIs'
