I was excited to see this but all of that went away when I realized you need to create an app in GCP to use it. Can't really expect non technical users to set this up across the company.

Can someone explain to me, why Google can't (or does not want to) implement the same auth flow that any other SaaS company uses:
# API Keys in Settings
1. Go to Settings -> API Keys Page
2. Create Token (set scope and expiration date)
# OAuth flow
1. `gws login` shows url to visit
2. Login with Google profile & select data you want to share
3. Redirect to localhost page confirms authentication
I get that I need to configure Project and OAuth screens if I want to develop an Applications for other users, that uses GCP services. This is fine. But I am trying to access my own data over a (/another) HTTP API. This should not be hard.
Can you name a service you think works like that?
Google have over a billion very non-technical users.
The friction of not having this in the account page that everyone has access too probably saves both parties lots of heartbreak.

We’re trying to create a single unified cli to every service on the planet, and make sure that everything can be set up with 3 clicks
Yeah, still no way around this unfortunately.
