The first link worked great, thanks!  I think I missed giving the correct permission as it was unchecked by default.

Hi, was facing the same issue. But now sorted out due to the comment on your thread. Thanks

It sounds like Google blocked the app due to its access request. Check if the app is authorized in your Google account settings or use a different app that has the necessary permissions.
