Connection Settings & Connection Issues
How to edit the local.php file for Google Account and Device ID, please read the following points below.
Google Account
We have seen numerous blocks from Google this is where you get a return for a 403/400 error. The best way to deal with this is to sleep between requests. Where we have seen library working on localhost then on a server not connecting is due to Google showing captcha.
Captcha
Please enable two-factor authentication for your Google Account (or use an other Google Account) then create an application password. Use the application password in the local.php file for connecting to Google. If your still getting blocks please use the captcha overide by using the following url logged in on the same Google Account on your Desktop Google Unlock Captcha
