Chrome Web Store 'You don't have access to licensing data for App ID:'

I have an offline Chrome Web App I want to sell through the web store.

It has a server backend. I'd like the server to check license data. How do I do that?

Here's the API. Here's a Java HowTo. Here's a OAuth-JWT lib for nodejs. I made a new client-id as described in the lib's readme.

I get this response: 

{ error: 
   { errors: [ [Object] ],
     code: 403,
     message: 'You don\'t have access to licensing data for App ID: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'
   }
}

How do I access license data for my app, in my server?

Mike

Here's the code: 

var appId = 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa';
var userId = '1111111111111111111111';


// obtain a JWT-enabled version of request
var request = require('google-oauth-jwt').requestWithJWT();


request({
  url: 'https://www.googleapis.com/chromewebstore/v1.1/licenses/'+appId+'/'+userId,
  jwt: {
    // use the email address of the service account, as seen in the API console
    email: '11111111111-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa@developer.gserviceaccount.com',
    // use the PEM file we generated from the downloaded key
    keyFile: 'config/keys/app-11111111111111.pem',
    // specify the scopes you wish to access - each application has different scopes
    scopes: ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chromewebstore.readonly']
  }
}, function (err, res, body) {
    console.log(JSON.parse(body));
});

I've spent way to much time on this and other small problems with the Chrome Webstore. Going with Stripe.com, Braintree, or similar.
