Can you provide some details? What is the error message? Can you provide me with some screenshots?
401. That’s an error.

Request Details
That’s all we know.
That was the error message. Don’t know how to include scrshot
Which step are you seeing this in?
The authentication part 1
Sorry, I am having a hard time understanding. Please see the documentation link (http://aquoid.com/plugins/photonic/google-photos/). Which step here is causing a problem?
Ah ok.
this part of the documentation
Authentication (🔗)
To set up authentication you will need to do the following:
The first step requires you to set the Google Client ID and Google Client Secret at Photonic → Settings → Google Photos → Google Photos Settings.
Next, head over to Photonic → Authentication → Google Photos, then start the authentication:
I don’t get to step 3. I don’t get the login screen. There I get the error
No, starting from scratch, with new client id.
Google photo’s api is enabled, as stated in the steps.
The google account is starting from gsuite (schools and education) Maybe there is a conflict with that…
OK, it looks like you either have a security plugin or one of the security settings on your host is conflicting with Photonic. I added a section for an authentication workaround on the documentation page. Please try the steps there.
The google account is starting from gsuite (schools and education) Maybe there is a conflict with that…
No, there are multiple people who use Photonic with G-Suite accounts. You shouldn’t have an issue because of that.
Let me know if the workaround helps.
It is not ideal, but the only way for me to get around that is to provide my own API key … and I cannot do that because Google imposes a limit of 10,000 calls per day and Photonic has way too many users for 10,000 calls to be sufficient.
