Error: AssertionError: access_level should be unicode text, is <type 'str'>

My bad. I didn't place unicode for my 'delete' in perms.
i.e. u'delete'
The u'' prefix is only necessary for the soon-obsolete Python 2. Version 2.7.3 (as described in the forum topic you linked) is almost 5 years old. Maybe consider upgrading to a recent version?
I was trying to use python for google photos as i wanted the 'free' photo upload feature.

However, they only seem to support 2.7 and I gave up trying to authenticate using their tools as alot of picasa web apis have died.
That's why i moved onwards to flickr and used your tool which is really awesome!
And yup, I shoulda used python 3 instead haha.
Thanks!
