Get Google API Access Token using JSON Private Key using NIST Time Server Date/Time

Demonstrates how to get a Google API access token using a JSON service account private key, using the NIST time server date/time rather than the local system date/time. C#

bool success = false;

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

//  First, let's get the current date/time from time-c.nist.gov
Chilkat.Socket socket = new Chilkat.Socket();

//  Connect to an NIST time server and read the current date/time
int maxWaitMs = 8000;
bool useTls = false;
success = socket.Connect("time-c.nist.gov",37,useTls,maxWaitMs);
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  The time server will send a big-endian 32-bit integer representing
//  the number of seconds since since 00:00 (midnight) 1 January 1900 GMT.
//  The ReceiveInt32 method will receive a 4-byte integer, but returns
//  true or false to indicate success.  If successful, the integer
//  is obtained via the ReceivedInt property.
bool bigEndian = true;
success = socket.ReceiveInt32(bigEndian);
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Chilkat.CkDateTime dt = new Chilkat.CkDateTime();
dt.SetFromNtpTime(socket.ReceivedInt);

//  Show the current local date/time
bool bLocalTime = true;
Debug.WriteLine("Current local date/time: " + dt.GetAsRfc822(bLocalTime));

maxWaitMs = 10;
socket.Close(maxWaitMs);

//  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
//  OK, we have the current date/time.  We'll use it to set the IAT property
//  in the code below.

//  First load the JSON key into a string.
Chilkat.FileAccess fac = new Chilkat.FileAccess();
string jsonKey = fac.ReadEntireTextFile("qa_data/googleApi/ChilkatTest-ab2ecd52ef98.json","utf-8");
if (fac.LastMethodSuccess != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(fac.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  A JSON private key should look like this:

//  	  "project_id": "chilkattest-1350",
//  	  "private_key_id": "fa2e36ee26986eab628b59868af8bec1d1c64c38",

//  then set the email address here. (Otherwise leave it empty.)

//  Set the IAT using the date/time from the NIST time server.
