Generating a refresh token for YouTube API calls using the OAuth playground

This tutorial demonstrates the steps it takes to generate a long-lived refresh token for your client ID/client secret pair using the OAuth 2.0 playground. This technique is useful for testing or for uncommon scenarios where you may need to generate a long-lived refresh token without having to include the 3-legged OAuth flow into your own applications.

How do u obtain an access token from a refresh token within yur code? Can't seem to find documentation on that.

This doesn't seem to work for "installed applications", as the APIs Console doesn't seem to allow for adding in any more Redirect URIs...the installed applications API only defaults in: "urn :ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob" and "h t t p ://localhost" redirect URIs.

Nice explanation and very concise but some screens are outdated in the video (not easy to follow the steps but not impossible)

If you get an error like 
Error: invalid_client
no application name
Request Details

{
  "error": "invalid_client"
}

Extremely old, can't take reviews from api, ultra bad and ultra old documentation from Google as always.
