If I understand your previous email well, I've created the bits I
highlighted below and I'm still getting error messages - see below.
I'm running the python script on a Macbook Pro.
*DEVELOPER_KEY = "AIza*****"*
*YOUTUBE_API_SERVICE_NAME = "youtube"*
*YOUTUBE_API_VERSION = "v3"*
*GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS = "/Users/*path*/Downloads/Youtube
API-67ty5.json"*
*def youtube_search(options):*
* youtube = build(YOUTUBE_API_SERVICE_NAME,
GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS, YOUTUBE_API_VERSION,
developerKey=DEVELOPER_KEY)*
*And here's the error message that was printed on my console:*
build() takes at most 2 positional arguments (3 given)
Traceback (most recent call last):
