Using Postman to access OAuth 2.0 Google APIs

Question

I am trying to access Proximity Google API using Postman chrome app. I have followed tutorials on postman and google dev website but I\'m still getting 401 error message.

Answer 1

I figured out that I was not generating Credentials for the right app type.
If you're using Postman to test Google oAuth 2 APIs, select
Credentials -> Add credentials -> OAuth2.0 client ID -> Web Application.
