Thank you so much for this amazing Gmail API Crash Course! I’ve been looking for a tutorial like this for a while, and honestly, no one on YouTube explains it quite like you do. It’s clear, concise, and incredibly helpful – truly top-notch content!

If it’s possible, I’d love to see a tutorial on the Google Keyword Planner API next. It would be amazing if you could show how to search for keywords using a Python script. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to more awesome tutorials from you!

Hi Your video is excellent for learning the Gmail API. I was wondering if you could provide the code for this API—it would be really helpful.
