Does youtube api need a pfx certificate?


I tried to run this Windows 8 app sample code for youtube linked from this article

but it doesn't work because of youtube_TemporaryKey.pfx which is not correct: what I should do to get the correct one?


Solution

  • I didn't face any problem of youtube_TemporaryKey.pfx, working fine for me. Though you can create test certificate of you own.

    1. Open Package.appxmanifest file.

    2. Go to "Packaging" tab.

    3. Click on "Choose Certificate" button.

    4. You will see a combo box, select "Create test certificate".

    5. Fill the form and new .PFX file will be added to project.
