Update Google Cloud API Instructions

[mroystonward]

So I just also encountered this same issue, setting this all up again on a new account (it was all automatic I think when I first used this project a few years ago).

I followed this guide https://tanaikech.github.io/2019/07/05/linking-cloud-platform-project-to-google-apps-script-project/ to make a new project in Cloud Platform, create OAuth credentials, and link the projects.

Once that was all set up I easily added the Google Calendar API library and successfully ran, and authorised, via Run->notifStart.

The guide I followed wasn't an exact match but I managed to stumble my way through so hopefully would help you too.

Sorry I'm not in a position right now to write this up more fully (or contribute to the documentation) but hopefully this helps.

@mroystonward awesome thanks - I tried it the same way and waiting now for the first birthday to happen :)

For me it was possible to run the test function successfully without creating a Google Cloud Platform Project.
A default OAuth popup occurs and I accept all permissions.
Can anyone confirm that? I don't know if a Google Cloud Platform Project ist necessary anymore.
