PRAW VS google-api-python-client

I'm... not sure I understand the question? PRAW still works just fine for "personal use" of the reddit API.

Thank you for pointing out. So there is no need then for the access token? Only with the refresh token is enough? To be honest I took a look at it but I did not expect that to be under authentication as strictly speaking, the user already made the authentication. Also I took a look at the code at https://github.com/praw-dev/praw/blob/master/praw/reddit.py and I did not get a hint whether was possible to pass it or not. I am just saying this to let you know I tried to search for the answer before asking. Again thank you for the help.

To get the relevant IDs, you can use something like PRAW to query the subreddit for the top 1000 posts for example.

Huge thanks to the contributors to PRAW, which is the Python package that does all the heavy lifting relating to Reddit's API that I need for this script.

However, in practice duplicate items were yielded with these smaller numbers. So I increased the limit briefly to 250 in October 2016, and then increased it finally to 301 in December 2016 in order to resolve https://github.com/praw-dev/praw/issues/673. That issue provides an explanation for how 301 came to be.

Why? You gotta be ready for any status code. Even 777.

We uploaded one of Google’s sample Python scripts to Docuwriter to test some of the code documentation types, starting with General Documentation:

Google has documentation and 'getting started' resources for the GMail API, but the sample script implemented in their 'Python Quickstart' guide is using syntax that is documented separately in the Google API Python Client docs and GMail API docs.

First hit on google: https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-python-client/issues/1640

I'd recommend using one of the clients vs trying to assemble the requests yourself. The Python client is a good place to start.

The main functionality is handled by the Thermostat class. On creation it creates a service object using the Google Python API Client. That's used later to help build and execute API requests. At app exit the service object is closed.

At first, to simplify the procedure, I started with the credentials of an open source email client. I then used the tool mutt_oauth2.py (which is a streamlined version of google-api-python-client).

Based on my understanding, this is now only possible via through OAUTH2. After several failed attempts, it seems I found the official supported library, that is google-api-python-client.

Documentation. I've encountered several non documented requirements on various services that are just frustrating for no reason, until you find the correct answer on StackOverflow or GitHub. This can be a known issue that is unfixed for years, even though it's only a change in documentation. Again, Google's support teams keep claiming to file "internal bug reports" that go nowhere for years. Google is so busy always developing the "next big thing" that they forget to invest in their own existing tools that developers count on. See this example Issue from 2015 that was still gaining comments in 2021!
