Authentication Credentials

The authentication credentials (client_id and client_secret) are hidden at the file config.py, and that file is not shared on here for privacy concerns.

The user has to add their own credentials for the script to work fully.

Future plans

  • Adding new features
  • Improving speed/decreasing latency.
