	When you create OAuth 2 credentials, you are implicitly choosing to implement an app with an architecture where your app asks a user for a certain permission level on their account, and the user approves or denies, and is authorized, entirely through the third-party service (Google).		When you create OAuth 2 credentials, you are implicitly choosing to implement an app with an architecture where your app asks a user for a certain permission level on their account, and the user approves or denies, and is authorized, entirely through the third-party service (Google).

			==Authenticate with Python==

			Now you can authenticate as the user, and obtain <code>credentials.json</code> containing credentials to take actions on that user's account, using a Python program:

			<pre>
			from apiclient.discovery import build
			from httplib2 import Http
			from oauth2client import file, client, tools

			# Setup the Drive v3 API
			#
			# Give it access to all the things (files plus metadata) but read-only
			#
			# https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/googlescopes#drivev3
			#
			SCOPES = 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.readonly'
			store = file.Storage('nihdatacommons_credentials.json')
			creds = store.get()
			if not creds or creds.invalid:
			flow = client.flow_from_clientsecrets('client_secrets.json', SCOPES)
			creds = tools.run_flow(flow, store)
			service = build('drive', 'v3', http=creds.authorize(Http()))
			</pre>

			This script requires <code>client_secrets.json</code> to be in the same directory. It will build a Google Drive service, which will automatically open a browser and visit a URL with a unique login token specific to this OAuth app. The user then logs in, and it closes the browser window and creates <code>credentials.json</code>, user-account-specific credentials.

			Steps:
			* Enable Google Drive API in Google Cloud Console
			* Download <code>client_secrets.json</code> which contains credentials to make requests as your application
			* Run your application and present the user with a unique login link
			* They log in, you end up with <code>credentials.json</code> which contain credentials to do things on behalf of that user
			* Use <code>credentials.json</code> when making API calls
