(PowerBuilder) OAuth2 for a GMail using a Service Account Key

Demonstrates how to use GMail with OAuth2 for a Google Service Account. The 1st step is to obtain a temporary access token from the Google OAuth 2.0 Authorization Server. This can be accomplished using Chilkat HTTP.

Once the access token is obtained, it may be used to send email. The access token may be used while it remains valid to send as many emails as desired. Once it expires, a new access token needs to be obtained (using the same procedure).

Note: This is for OAuth2 using Google Service account keys.

// This example is for OAuth2 using a Google Service Account Key.

// When a service account (Client ID) is created at https://code.google.com/apis/console/
// Google will generate a P12 key.  This is a PKCS12 (PFX) file that you will download
// and save.  The password to access the contents of this file is "notasecret".
// NOTE: The Chilkat Pfx API provides the ability to load a PFX/P12 and re-save
// with a different password.

// Begin by loading the downloaded .p12 into a Chilkat certificate object:
loo_Cert = create oleobject
// Use "Chilkat_9_5_0.Cert" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0
li_rc = loo_Cert.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Cert")

// The next (and final) step is to request the access token.  Chilkat internally
// does all the work of forming the JWT header and JWT claim set, encoding and
// signing the JWT, and sending the access token request.
// The application need only provide the inputs: The iss, scope(s), sub, and the
// desired duration with a max of 3600 seconds (1 hour).
// 
// Each of these inputs is defined as follows 
// (see https://developers.google.com/accounts/docs/OAuth2ServiceAccount
// iss: The email address of the service account.
// scope: A space-delimited list of the permissions that the application requests.
// sub: The email address of the user for which the application is requesting delegated access.
//       the "sub" may be empty if no delegation exists.
// numSec: The number of seconds for which the access token will be valid (max 3600).
