 # How to generate Google API keys
 
-[chrome-webstore-upload](https://github.com/fregante/chrome-webstore-upload) uses the Chrome Web Store API.
-
-Here's how to get its 3 access keys: `clientId`, `clientSecret` and `refreshToken`
-
-*Note:* the names you enter here don't really matter. It's an app that only you will have access to. This will take approximately 10 minutes and Google likes to change these screens often. Sorry.

-
-	> <img width="771" alt="Publish app" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/27696701/114265946-2da2a280-9a26-11eb-9567-c4e00f572500.png">
-
-0. Place your `clientId` in this URL and open it:
-
-	`https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?response_type=code&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fchromewebstore&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8818&access_type=offline&client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID_HERE`
-
-0. Follow its steps and warnings (this is your own personal app)
-0. You will reach this error page, with a URL that looks like:
-
-	```
-	http://localhost:8818/?code=4/0AX4XfWjwRDOZc_1nsxnupN8Xthe7dlfL0gB3pE-MMalTab0vWZBDj9ywDMacIT15U-Q&scope=https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chromewebstore
-	```
-
-	> <img width="478" alt="A page that says 'This site can’t be reached'" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1402241/163123857-d2741237-80ea-482e-b468-ef9df75330f8.png">
-
-0. Copy the `approval code` between `code=` and `&scope`, it should look like this; use it in the next step:
-
-	```
-	4/0AX4XfWjwRDOZc_1nsxnupN8Xt-dont-use-this-code-IT15U-Q
-	```
-
-0. Run this in the browser console **on the same page** (otherwise you'll get CORS errors), it's a wizard to create your `refresh_token`:
-
-```js
-(async () => {
-  const ask = message => decodeURIComponent(prompt(message).trim())
-  const response = await fetch('https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token', {
-    method: "POST",
-    body: new URLSearchParams([
-      ['client_id', ask('Enter your clientId')],
-      ['client_secret', ask('Enter your client secret')],
-      ['code', ask('Enter your approval code')],
-      ['grant_type', 'authorization_code'],
-      ['redirect_uri', 'http://localhost:8818']
-    ]),
-    headers: {
-      'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'
-    }
-  });
-  const json = await response.json();
-  console.log(json);
-  if (!json.error) {
-    if (typeof copy === 'function' && !navigator.userAgent.includes('Firefox')) { // #58
-      copy(json.refresh_token);
-      alert('The refresh_token has been copied into your clipboard. You’re done!');
-    } else {
-      console.log('Copy your token:');
-      console.log(json.refresh_token);
-      alert('Copy your refresh_token from the console output. You’re done!');
-    }
-  }
-})();
-```
-
-9001. Done. Now you should have ✅ `clientId`, ✅ `clientSecret` and ✅ `refreshToken`. You can use these for all your extensions, but don't share them!
