This is day 5 of my attempt to use google cloud services and everywhere I encounter bug-ridden software. I then have to ask someone to help me remove the bugs and then it turns out that their solutions are not written down in the official documentation. I'm almost at my wits end and am about to go over to digital ocean.

In any case I could not pip install googleapiclient. Over here

the asker was never given a satisfactory solution. I downloaded the clone directly but I have never had to install a site-package directly and this after 4 years of python programming and probably 200 installations. I didn't know what to do so I just tried moving the folder googleapiclient into the site-packages folder and that at least removed the old error but I seriously doubt the software will work when I do not know what to do with the other folders. In any case, right now I'm getting an error:
