    // 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:
    cert := chilkat.NewCert()
    success = cert.LoadPfxFile("/myDir/API Project-1c43a291e2a1-notasecret.p12","notasecret")

    // 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.
    // numSec: The number of seconds for which the access token will be valid (max 3600).

    success = claimParams.AddStr("scope","https://mail.google.com/")

    // The "sub" param is required if there is an email address, such as for a
    // Google Apps domain—if you use Google Apps for Work, where the administrator of the Google Apps domain 
    // can authorize an application to access user data on behalf of users in the Google Apps domain.
    // 
    // Comment out this line if there is no such email address.
