Google APIs in general are hilariously hard to adopt. With any other service on the planet, you go to a platform page, grab an api key and you’re good to go.

Want to use Google’s gmail, maps, calendar or gemini api? Create a cloud account, create an app, enable the gmail service, create an oauth app, download a json file. Cmon now…

Yeah, I'm not a dev and not using AI at all but had a need to create oauth keys and some APIs for some project... sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt and it's so complicated...but got it working in the end, thos it stops working after some time, it was like, Google, really?
