'Credentials' object has no attribute 'authorize'

I’m migrating my app from the depriciated oAuth2Client to this library. I use requests_oauthlib to get the refresh_token, the access_token and all the rest. Then I build the credential object like this:

    credentials = google.oauth2.credentials.Credentials(
                                                        access_token,
                                                        refresh_token = refresh_token,
                                                        token_uri = 'https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/token',
                                                        client_id = settings.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
                                                        client_secret = settings.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET
                                                        )

I’m not sure about the token_uri, what am I supposed to put there? In any case this seems to work, making a simple call like this one:

    authed_session = AuthorizedSession(credentials)
    response = authed_session.get('https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo') 

works as expected and I do get back the results. However my app relies a lot on the Google Analytic api, which uses its own build method.

With oAuth2client I used to do (to get properties using v3):

    http = httplib2.Http()
    http = credentials.authorize(http)
    v3 = build('analytics', 'v3', http=http)
    try:
        account_summaries = v3.management().accountSummaries().list().execute()
    except Exception as error:
        return error_page(request, error)
    google_email = account_summaries['username']

And to get metrics with v4:

    http = credentials.authorize(httplib2.Http())
    DISCOVERY_URI = ('https://analyticsreporting.googleapis.com/$discovery/rest')
    analytics = build('analytics', 'v4', http=http, discoveryServiceUrl=DISCOVERY_URI)

and then: analytics.reports().batchGet( ...........etc)

However now that I migrate to this library I don’t know how I can use the build method. All the documentation is really old and still referencing the depreciated library. How can I authenticate and use correctly google-auth with the Google Analytics API?

Thanks

Hey hey, progress! 😃

Let me know if I can do anything to help from here. I think I’m going to add a better error message to googleapiclient to say that it needs google-auth-httplib2 if you pass it google-auth credentials.

@Cosbgn when using google-auth with google-api-python-client you only need to specify the credentials to discovery - you do not need to construct your own http instance. So:

v3 = build('analytics', 'v3', credentials=credentials)
try:
    account_summaries = v3.management().accountSummaries().list().execute()
except Exception as error:
    return error_page(request, error)
google_email = account_summaries['username']

Should work.
