Kodi YouTube Add-On Configuration

You need the following components from a project in https://console.cloud.google.com to get this to work:

1. API key
2. OAuth client ID
3. Test user

How do you get them?

1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com
2. Create a new project and “select” it as the active project
3. Enable the “YouTube Data API v3” in the project
4. Create some credentials
   1. API key: This is simply a string. Nothing fancy about it.
   2. OAuth 2.0 Client ID
      1. This one contains two components: Client ID and Client Secret. You’ll need both.
   3. Select an API -> “YouTube Data API v3”
   4. What data will you be accessing? -> “Public data”
