I'm trying to automate the code that changes thumbnails with the YouTube api. I have to enter the authentication key every time I do it, so is there a way to omit this part?

terminal when running

CodePudding user response：

You can use python-youtube:

The documentation clearly listed how to initialize it with access token or api-key:

>>> from pyyoutube import Api
>>> api = Api(api_key="your api key")

Or with access token:

>>> from pyyoutube import Api
>>> api = Api(access_token='your api key')
