(C# UWP/WinRT) Get a Google Drive Application Specific Data OAuth2 Access Token

Demonstrates how to get a Google Drive OAuth2 access token from a desktop application or script for the purpose of uploading and fetching only application-specific data.

"The application data folder is a special hidden folder that your app can use to store application-specific data, such as configuration files. The application data folder is automatically created when you attempt to create a file in it. Use this folder to store any files that the user shouldn't directly interact with. This folder is only accessible by your application and its contents are hidden from the user and from other Drive apps.

The application data folder is deleted when a user uninstalls your app from their MyDrive. Users can also delete your app's data folder manually."
