TL;DR: Read the EDIT for how I fixed my issue.
I have created new keys and new OAuth Client ID's a couple of times now, and when I enter the code the first time, I receive notification that the "Client ID is incorrect". I believe my method of configuring the API to be faulty, due to the fact that the websites I've visited providing instructions have older instructions, or instructions that seem to be missing some of the info I'm being asked for. (For example, when I attempt to create the OAuth credentials, I'm seeing a question of "Internal" vs. "External" which is not being referenced in the instructions I'm seeing. I'm also being forced to use "External" as I'm not a "G Suite User".)
Is there a current, up-to-date set of instructions on how to create the YouTube API for Kodi that you would recommend?
Edit: I have had SUCCESS, however, not without a couple of challenges. I used the instructions in POST #2 of this thread, and while there are a couple of items missing (the internal vs external question) the end result was a success. Basically, when you get to the step asking about internal vs. external, you're forced to use External if you're not a GSuite Customer. That's fine, but it also opens up an additional issue. I copied the API Key from the first set, and the Client ID and Secret from the second set, and saved. I had to EXIT KODI prior to attempting to connect twice using the app - as I tried it three times prior to exiting and restarting and it continued to give me the "Client ID is incorrect message" - but once I restarted it, the two connection process did do one thing differently. Because I had configured an External app, it warned me that "if you don't know the developer, click away!" and as I am the developer, technically of this key, I had to select the "yeah, I trust me" selection to continue to allow the Kodi app to use the keys.
