I am new in Python and trying use Google Drive Apis, but facing this issue.
Error I am getting after running python quickstart.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "quickstart.py", line 9, in <module>
creds = store.get()
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/oauth2client/client.py", line 407, in get
return self.locked_get()
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/oauth2client/file.py", line 54, in locked_get
credentials = client.Credentials.new_from_json(content)
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/oauth2client/client.py", line 302, in new_from_json
module_name = data['_module']
KeyError: '_module'
- I have generated client_secret.json file as per the Python Quickstart tutorial.
- All the file are in the same directory as that of quickstart.py.
Here is how my quickstart.py file looks.
from __future__ import print_function
from apiclient.discovery import build
from httplib2 import Http
from oauth2client import file, client, tools
# Setup the Drive v3 API
SCOPES = 'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.metadata.readonly'
store = file.Storage('credentials.json')
creds = store.get()
if not creds or creds.invalid:
flow = client.flow_from_clientsecrets('client_secret.json', SCOPES)
creds = tools.run_flow(flow, store)
service = build('drive', 'v3', http=creds.authorize(Http()))
# Call the Drive v3 API
results = service.files().list(
pageSize=10, fields="nextPageToken, files(id, name)").execute()
items = results.get('files', [])
if not items:
print('No files found.')
else:
print('Files:')
for item in items:
print('{0} ({1})'.format(item['name'], item['id']))
UPDATE: I checked and it turns out that credentials.json file is auto-generated on the first run and for some reason, this is not happening.
KeyError: '_module'
This key _module is suppose to be present in credentials.json file and that is why this error is thrown. Not sure what is missing. Can someone please tell me how to resolve this issue.
