# Authentication via OAuth
# OAuth2

## Usage
## Custom OAuth2 Credentials
Just like the official Data API, YouTube.js supports using your own OAuth2 credentials. A working example can be found [here](https://github.com/LuanRT/YouTube.js/blob/main/examples/auth/custom-oauth2-creds).

Before using any methods which require authentication, you have to authenticate the session:
## YouTube TV OAuth2

The library supports signing in using YouTube TV's client id. This is the recommended way to sign in as it doesn't require you to create your own OAuth2 credentials.

```js
// 'auth-pending' is fired with the info needed to sign in via OAuth.

### Cache Credentials
A working example can be found [here](https://github.com/LuanRT/YouTube.js/blob/main/examples/auth/yttv-oauth2.js).

## Cache Credentials

If you don't wish to sign in every time you start the session, you can cache the credentials. Note that this SHOULD NOT be used in production, save your credentials in a database/file instead and pass them to `Session#signIn(creds?)` when signing in.

### Sign Out
## Sign Out

The sign out method may be used to sign out of the current session. This should also remove the cached credentials.
