The solution from this page:

==================================
Using the urls below
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/programmatic_auth?hl=en&scope=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Faccounts%2FOAuthLogin+https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fuserinfo.email&client_id=936475272427.apps.googleusercontent.com&access_type=offline&delegated_client_id=183697946088-m3jnlsqshjhh5lbvg05k46q1k4qqtrgn.apps.googleusercontent.com&top_level_cookie=1
you can get to a programmatic_auth url that sets the oauth code to a cookie that contains the oAuth code.

A video explaining how to get it:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlDhp-eNLMU
It's 41 secs long, no sound, with annotations.

Text version:
Go to the above url
Enter your username, click next.
Right click page background, inspect
Go to the network tab.
Enter your password, click sign in
Click the first row, the one that says "programmatic_auth"
Scroll down in the right-side panel, find "set-cookie"
Your code should be there, after "oauth_code=", up to but not including the semicolon.
Copy it and use it.

This DOES WORK. a bit of a pain but it WORKS! :-D

I forgot to login before creating issue, sorry. It doesn't say in the above but you need to NOT be signed into google so a private tab is the way to go for this. Also what isn't clear to some is where to paste the code which is actually the plug-in popup asking for a code.
