dear @bugsounet & @sdetweil
thanks for your support, I didn’t mean to be rude, I suppose that I was frustrated for all the time I spent, while you were trying to help someone that you didn’t know and without experience :confounded_face:
But finally I made it work!!!
For future readers that may have my same problem, following:

Finally I used “desktop app”, but the biggest issue was to allow the user:

@sdetweil
in
https://github.com/hermanho/MMM-GooglePhotos
they say crearly and as “IMPORTANT!!” to select desktop :dizzy_face: :face_with_monocle:

@sdetweil thanks, next step passed using “Desktop app”
But now, google blocks the access even when I try to grant it:

By the way!!! I can start magic mirror… but I’m really trying to set a google photos photframe… the rest of the modules can be checked later.

thanks. I understand I need to write “localhost” the same as you have done.
But no luck. still error in generate_token:

@sdetweil thanks for the suggestion, I tried “desktop app” with same result.
the other app types require more data which I dont know how to fill.

I’m sorry. what should I do?
The credentials.json file is generated automatically from the google developers console… :astonished_face:

@sdetweil Thanks for your answer.
I select “TVs and Limited Input devices” as per the manual.
And the credentials.json file starts with that code you write.
I think that is not the solution or I may be still be doing something wrong.

Hi everybody, I’m new here, as long as I arrived trying to set up a photo frame with google photos.
