}

The Google API Client Library OAuth2 docs states,

Keep your client secret private. If someone obtains your client secret, they could use it to consume your quota, incur charges against your Developers Console project, and request access to user data.

Here are the steps to get secrets.json for youtube api...

Step1. Go to console https://console.developers.google.com/iam-admin/

Step2. Select your Service Project.

Step3. Click on Service Accounts tab on left side.

Step4. In Service Accounts, at the end of the service accounts you will find an options button. click on it.

enter image description here

Step5. Click on Create Key.

Step6. It will show you a dialog to selecte keytype JSON or P12. Select JSON and click create.

Step7. Your Json will be automatically downloaded.

Step8. For Android and Java, in main directory, create new directory resources and paste your json file.

Step9. Read it this file where you want your users to authorize.
