set http [new_CkHttp]

# 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:
set cert [new_CkCert]

# 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).

set claimParams [new_CkHashtable]

# The required claim parameters that must be provided by the application are
# the "iss" and "scope" params:

set success [CkHashtable_AddStr $claimParams "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.
set success [CkHashtable_AddStr $claimParams "sub" "user@your-domain.com"]

# The "aud" parameter is optional.  If not set, it defaults to the value shown here:
