2. Clone this repository.
3. Follow the folder README instructions to run and test samples.

Run Snippet Tests

Create a Service Account

Before running tests, create a service account and download application_credentials.json in this directory.

To create a service account, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Google Cloud Console API Dashboard
2. Enable APIs for products you'd like to test snippets for like Slides or Drive.
3. Create a service account key under Credentials.
4. After creating a new JSON Service account key without a role, rename the downloaded file to application_credentials.json and move the file to this directory.

Run tests

In any snippet directory, npm run test.

Lint

Install and run ESLint. Example:

npm run lint apps-script/**/*.js

Some IDEs (like VS Code) will detect these lint errors within the editor.

Node.js Client Library

Google Workspace APIs use the Google API Node.js client library.
