Globally set API KEY

See original GitHub issue

Would be nice to have a way to set the API KEY on the API level and not only on the REQUEST level.

Something like:

require('googleapis')
  .discover('youtube', 'v3')
  .withApiKey('YOUR_KEY');

Fixed in 1.0.0. Set a global API KEY just like this:

var google = require('googleapis');
google.options({ auth: 'API KEY HERE' });

or even on the service level if that suits your fancy:

var google = require('googleapis');
var youtube = google.youtube({ version: 'v3', auth: 'API KEY HERE' });
// ...
