node generate_token_v2 error

[sdetweil]

@Crimson0087 and you did put the downloaded creendtial json file in this folder with the name ‘credentials.json’

[Crimson0087]

@sdetweil

Yes I did.

[sdetweil]

@Crimson0087 ok, that has exhausted my experience here

@sdetweil Google did change their login experience anyway, so if the module’s not being maintained, it’s a hard stop, likely.

@BKeyport this is GoogleAssistant…

@bugsounet any help?

Hi,
I haven’t noticed any issues creating tokens.
I don’t use the same method (mine is web app) and I use one credentials file (MMM-GoogleAssuistant credentials) for generate any token (Google Photo, Youtube, …)

This is my Terminal return:

bugsounet@PC-Bugsounet:~/MagicMirror/modules/EXT-GooglePhotos$ npm run token

> EXT-GooglePhotos@1.4.4 token
> installer/token.sh

Welcome to EXT-GooglePhotos Token generator!

Do you want to install/reinstall EXT-GooglePhotos token? [Y/n] 
Your choice: y
[GPHOTOS] Check credentials.json...
[GPHOTOS] credentials.json found in /home/bugsounet/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GoogleAssistant/credentials.json

  CREDENTIALS: '/home/bugsounet/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GoogleAssistant/credentials.json',
  TOKEN: '/home/bugsounet/MagicMirror/modules/EXT-GooglePhotos/tokenGP.json'

[GPHOTOS:AUTH] Token is refreshed.
[GPHOTOS] TokenGP is generated.

So I think author have to review his token generator

@bugsounet

[BKeyport]

@bugsounet so, silly question as I don’t use google for anything but an old email address - Would a token generated in your app work in the other app?

[bugsounet]

@BKeyport : the structure of the token is not the same

The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy" is not always true ;/

@Crimson0087 I had a similar issue after mine decided to break the API connection after a week. I have posted on the repo issue pages what I was able to do to fix your exact problem. Go figure you were attempting at the exact same time I was troubleshooting it. https://github.com/hermanho/MMM-GooglePhotos/issues/191
