Google Photos API Credentials

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,

yes the APi key is encrypted on the code to please Google to work.

If you want to try your own key just pass the key string directly here :

https://invent.kde.org/graphics/digikam/-/blob/master/core/dplugins/generic/webservices/google/gstalkerbase.cpp?ref_type=heads#L66

You have 2 strings to pass :

- the identity key
- the shared key.

Replace the 2 calls with WSToolUtils::decodeKey(d->sharedKey) with
QLatin1String("_my google_key_") as string not encrypted.

Best regards

Gilles Caulier
