<![CDATA[MMM-Google photo error when executing node generate_token.js]]>I’ve installed the MMM-Google photo module on a windows pc with git bash
I’ve created a client_secret_xxx.apps.googleusercontent.com.json file and renamed it to credentials.json and placed it into the MMM-Google photo module directory.
The problem occurs when I execute node generate_token.js. See the error below. What is wrong and how do I fix it?

$ node generate_token.js
[GPHOTOS:CORE] Error: Missing Credentials.
