This is for the entire 'Cloud Platform'. You dont need this.
As already suggested to you several times, please simply follow my YOUTUBE PERSONAL API KEY INSTRUCTIONS in Post #2 on Page 1 here.
I use Personal API Keys myself and I can assure you that they do not expire after 2 months.
I'm not sure if you have already signed up, but I'm not signing up for the youtube api for kodi. Maybe you can correct the info in your initial posts since they are way out of date. It's required of the user in google cloud to sign an agreement that which I've already showed you about "trial docs" I won't be posting about this again because obviously your not listening. see google terms when clicking your first link found here in your posts when not already a member of google developer networks.
- I have already signed up around a year ago so I know that the Personal API Keys do not expire after 60 days.
- The info in the instructions is NOT 'way out of date'. Only that Google has added the extra screen you mention to accept the Terms of Service. I will add a screenshot of that to the instructions. The rest of the instructions remain correct.
- I just followed the instructions and setup everything on a fresh account and they worked perfectly. Yes it is necessary to accept the Terms of Service (of course!) but it is not required to sign up for any 'Free Trial', and it is not required to give your credit card details, or to pay anything.
- It is your own choice to create Personal API Keys or not. You are free to make this decision as you wish, nobody is forcing you.
If you don't want to do so please accept the limitations of using this addon without them.
If you do want to create Personal API Keys, please follow my instructions in Post #2 on Page 1
here. (update pending)
