I am trying to follow the guides for implenting the licensing api-
I set up a new app in the dashboard,

however when I click oauth setup, and then generate, the oauth secret
portion is blank.

I do remember with an earlier test app it was available as described
in the tutorials.

Is this an error in my account?

Not sure why the Chrome Web Store dashboard fails to provide the oauth
secret- could it be that oauth 2.0 does not need one? I signed up
with another account and got the same result- secret was blank.

Regardless, the posted tutorials did not work as described,
( https://developers.google.com/chrome/web-store/docs/get_started )
( https://developers.google.com/chrome/web-store/docs/samples#php )
and kept giving us a 401 invalid credentials...
but it did mention other ways to generate the needed oauth token
including the oauth playground from google.

I used auth playground and put in the token info and secret from
there, along with the app id generated by chrome web store.

I then simply needed to open the link which was only available to test
publishers, and buy our own app!

Have this been resolve? cause we been having the same problem. We
added a new app in our listing and then when we generate an OAuth
there is no token secret generated.
