I have been trying to setup this integration:
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/youtube/
And the section on how to create an API key no longer follows the UIO on the youtube/google pages. Does anyone have an updated guide or a link to a how-to to create the needed keys for use with this integration..?

This is a prime example of why folks break the watercooler rules about asking for support. 😦 You cant get advice or help from an empty room. You need to ask where folks can see.
Since there is activity in watercooler, that draws folks to participate there and doesn't draw them to these support areas.

Likely nobody would have answered you there either. Plenty of people read this, it's just a niche question that most won't know the answer to.

So, i haven't set this up myself but i just went through the steps of getting the API Credentials that are required according to the documentation you linked.
The screenshot i've attached shows that a client id and a client secret are required, right?
I basically selected a project (iirc i created that by following the google calendar integration guide) when i was prompted for it, after clicking "Enable" on the YouTube API that is linked in the integration (2nd and 3rd screenshot). Then i got redirected. Then there is credentials on the Left (4th screenshot). There i selected "Create Credentials" in the Top-Nav and "OAuth Client ID" from the popup.
From there i just followed the integration, select web-application, add the Authorized redirect URIs and continue. On that screen i received a Client ID and Client Secret, as the integration documentation indicates are required.
Did you have any trouble with these steps or did you receive these config values but they don't seem to work for some reason?
Feel free to ping me if you have any questions or i might miss it, hope i didn't completely misunderstand your issue ^^

Hey @fleet oriole ! Thanks so much for chiming in here! I am a few days away from being able to revisit this project but I plan to follow the steps you provided and see if I can get as far as you did. When I was trying this, I got to the point where instructions referenced things that didn't exist where they said they should be so I stopped there as I didn't know how to proceed. Thanks again for your reply! 👍🙂
