Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-699:
----------------------------------------

:-)  Well, I don't know anything about oauth either.  But what it appears to 
mean is that we have to register the application with some credentials against 
some cloud service, and then use the token they give us back as part of the 
connector credentials.  Since this appears to be nothing more than a form-based 
web UI, and a subsequent web post, it is potentially automatable.  But I think 
the tricky part of the script would be in emulating a browser sufficiently to 
perform those parts of the task.

But if you are not interested, that is OK with me...

> The GoogleDrive connector requires a context token.  In order to obtain that 
> context token, it is necessary to register the application against a central 
> server somewhere (which I believe is covered in the GoogleDrive end-user 
> documentation).  It may be helpful to provide a script which does this 
> instead; would make life potentially easier and could be extended for 
> SharePoint 2013 and others.
