Step 1: Create or Log In to Google Cloud Console

1. Visit Google Cloud Console.
2. Sign in using your Google account (the one linked to your YouTube channel).
3. Once logged in, click the “Select a Project” dropdown at the top.
4. Click “New Project” and give it a name — e.g., BrickGPT Integration.
5. Click Create.

Step 2: Enable YouTube Data API

1. With your new project selected, go to APIs & Services → Library.
2. Search for YouTube Data API v3.
3. Click it, then click Enable.
4. This allows BrickGPT to access your YouTube channel information and upload content (with your permission).

Step 3: Create OAuth Credentials

1. Still in APIs & Services, click Credentials on the sidebar.
2. Click “Create Credentials” → “OAuth client ID.”
3. If prompted, first configure your OAuth consent screen:
   • Choose External (so other users can log in).
   • Add your app name, support email, and BrickGPT website link.
   • Save and continue until setup is complete.
4. Then choose Web Application as your credential type.
5. Under Authorized redirect URIs, add your BrickGPT redirect URL (the one shown under “Social Media Settings”).
6. Click Create.

Step 4: Get Your Keys

After creating the OAuth client:

• Copy your Client ID and Client Secret.
• You’ll need these to link your YouTube account to BrickGPT.

Tip: You can always return to “APIs & Services → Credentials” later to view or regenerate these keys.

Step 5: Connect YouTube to BrickGPT

Once you have your Client ID and Client Secret ready:

Copy all the keys and head to your BrickGPT account under “Social Media Settings” → “Add YouTube Account”
Fill all the respective fields accordingly and save to proceed.

Step 6: Authorize the Connection

1. Click “Connect YouTube” in BrickGPT.
2. You’ll be redirected to Google’s secure authorization page.
3. Choose your Google account, then allow the permissions BrickGPT requests.
4. Once approved, you’ll be redirected back — and your YouTube account will be successfully connected! 🎥

Step 7: Optional — Go Live for Team or Client Accounts

If you want to allow others to connect their YouTube channels using your BrickGPT platform:

• Make sure your OAuth consent screen is Published (not in “Testing” mode).
• Add your domain (e.g., yourdomain.com) to the Authorized domains list under the consent screen settings.
