Problems with certificate with MMM- Google Photos
-
Hi,
I am trying to implement Google Photo module. Thinking it could be kind of fun new year’s eve to invite all my guests to a shared photo folder.
I have followed the instructions and have also received a credentials file that I have renamed to credentials.json and placed it in /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GooglePhotosBut when I use the command node auth_and_test.js I receive an error.
Any suggestions?

@janne
Your credentials.json seems being maden wrongly. You might have missed something or chosen different option with my instruction when you made credentials.
Open .json and see the first word. It should have{“installed” : ...or something similar.https://github.com/eouia/MMM-GooglePhotos#get-auth-and-albumid
I think you made something wrong on step 7.

Hi Sean,
You were right.
I created a new project and now I get an ID when I send the command node auth_and_test.js
I have more or less just copied your config example.
But this is not valid in the config file.
-
The value for albumId should be written with quotation marks
"AFktr.....26Z3s",
Other than that I cannot spot any error in your snippet.

Thanks… That solved it…
You guys are awesome
So now my MMM is totally ready for New Years Eve.
The menu is on a MMM-Memo and all guests is getting access to the google album so they can post pictures to the MMM.

@ernst-jan
If you confirmed auth on your browser (Selecting your account and approval), Some code (4/ABCD1234BLAHBLAHBLAH....) will be shown after confirmation. Copy that code and paste it into your terminal shell (You can change the window withCtrl+Tab)
