* This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

* First load the JSON key into a string.
loFac = CreateObject('Chilkat.FileAccess')
lcJsonKey = loFac.ReadEntireTextFile("qa_data/googleApi/chilkatcloud-b8826e030499.json","utf-8")
IF (loFac.LastMethodSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loFac.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFac
    CANCEL
ENDIF

loGAuth = CreateObject('Chilkat.AuthGoogle')
loGAuth.JsonKey = lcJsonKey

* Choose a scope.
loGAuth.Scope = "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive"

* Request an access token that is valid for this many seconds.
loGAuth.ExpireNumSeconds = 3600

* If the application is requesting delegated access:
* The email address of the user for which the application is requesting delegated access,
* then set the email address here. (Otherwise leave it empty.)
loGAuth.SubEmailAddress = ""

* Connect to www.googleapis.com using TLS (TLS 1.2 is the default.)
* The Chilkat socket object is used so that the connection can be established
* through proxies or an SSH tunnel if desired.
loTlsSock = CreateObject('Chilkat.Socket')
lnSuccess = loTlsSock.Connect("www.googleapis.com",443,1,5000)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loTlsSock.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFac
    RELEASE loGAuth
    RELEASE loTlsSock
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Send the request to obtain the access token.
lnSuccess = loGAuth.ObtainAccessToken(loTlsSock)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loGAuth.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFac
    RELEASE loGAuth
    RELEASE loTlsSock
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Examine the access token:
? "Access Token: " + loGAuth.AccessToken
