Authentication Issues

[taviso]

It seems like gkeep has stopped working over the last few days because of kiwiz/gkeepapi#123

I don't think there's much that can be done until that's resolved, but just mentioning it here in case anyone else is curious why their scripts stopped working!

It seems to be resolved! Reinstalling gkeep pulls the new version of gkeepapi and it works.

sorry, I'm having the problem logging on and tried uninstalling and reinstalling gkeep, even deleting gkeepapi and pip cache to make sure to force the reinstall of gkeepapi. Still no go. error message is just "Authentication failed, what do you want to do?"
tried turning on 2FA and creating an appspecific password and using that instead of my regular gmail password, no go.

same here,

$ gkeep notes
Welcome to Google Keep. Enter your username and password below. If your account is protected, you need an application password: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/185833
Enter your Google username: user.name@gmail.com
Enter your password: 
Authentication failed, what do you want to do?

  [E]nter new credentials
  [r]etry
  [a]bort
Enter a choice [E/r/a]: 

I tried with either my google password,
either with a created "app password" as instructed at [1]

I have installed

$ pip install gkeepapi
Successfully installed gkeepapi-0.14.2        gpsoauth-1.0.2
$ pip install gkeep
Successfully installed gkeep-1.0.1

any clue?
how can I proceed to move forward?

I have the same issue. Maybe the 2 factor authentication?

Hello,
I've created a Pull Request that fixes this authentication issue by adding master token support.

Authentication file format (~/.config/gkeep/auth.json):

  "master_token": "aas_et/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
}
