3.5.2 Generate OAuth 2.0 Token (DFP)

Google has changed the login process: In the future, all DFP API calls must be authorized through OAuth 2.0. OAuth 2.0 is an open standard that allows users to grant permissions to third-party applications so that the application can interact with web services on the user's behalf. It enables your DFP API client application to access a user's DFP account without having to handle or store the user's username or password.
