@torafadora change the app type, and download a new credentials.json

look inside, its text. if it has an installed key then its the correct type

@sdetweil
I made a new desktop application download the credentials.json ran the authenticate.mjs to generate the token.json file. But I am getting the same error as before.
[ERROR] [MMM-GoogleTasks] - Error retrieving Google Tasks: TypeError: Cannot destructure property ‘client_secret’ of ‘this.credentials.installed’ as it is undefined.

here is the client_secret.json-

{
  "installed": {
    "client_id": "x",
    "project_id": "xxx",
    "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth",
    "token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token",
    "auth_provider_x509_cert_url": "https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/certs",
    "client_secret": "xxx",
    "redirect_uris": ["http://localhost"]
  }
}

[
  {
    "account": "me",
    "token": {
      "access_token": "xxx",
      "refresh_token": "xxx",

@sdetweil https://github.com/spydersoft-consulting/MMM-GoogleTasks

This is the project I am working from. I don’t understand what you are trying to say.

torafadora

@sdetweil Don’t need to put this in but I have worked with the google console with another module I built from scratch for reading and automatically classifying emails and that works no problem. I also know that my credentials, token and client_secret are correct because I am able to get a json response from a URL.

@torafadora i was looking at

https://github.com/jgauth/MMM-GoogleTasks

torafadora

@sdetweil I got it working with that one, why can’t it work with the original, this one is too plain

sdetweil

@torafadora i dont know,

@torafadora

maybe change the paths to

‘modules/MMM-GoogleTasks/…filename’

as the module is executed w MagicMirror running in the MagicMirror folder
