Hi I'm trying to use google's cloud vision API, specifically this example: https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/label-tutorial#label_tutorial_1
I followed this tutorial: https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/getting-started#set_up_a_service_account for setting up a service account but when I run my code I get:
googleapiclient.errors.HttpError: <HttpError 403 when requesting https://vision.googleapis.com/$discovery/rest?version=v1 returned "Request had insufficient authentication scopes.">
Can anybody help? I can't figure out what's going on, my code is 1:1 with the tutorials.
I was getting the same error. I did the following:
then initialized the gcloud sdk via ...
and voila it started working!
You can also try re-generating the credentials from the API manager
You need to clean
~/.credentials/sheets.googleapis.com-python-quickstart.json
from your computer. Then define your scope ashttps://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive
. Run your code again, it should ask you to re-authorize. Then run your code.You might want to use the
google.cloud
client library for the Vision API instead.To authenticate with the right scope, you'll need to generate a service account in the Cloud Console, and point to it from your code (or environment variables). See the Vision auth section for more info:
Get a service account from the credentials manager in the Cloud Console. Then point to your project and JSON credentials file in your environment:
The demo you were trying to run (labeling an image) becomes:
