Setup

Give access for the app to clean your channel comments

The app needs to read and delete your channel comments and compare your profile with commenter profiles, so we need to get API key which gives access for it.

Create new project in the Google Developers Console
The app name can be YouTube scam comment cleaner for example.
Enable YouTube Data API v3
Select Credentials from the left side menu -> then press + CREATE CREDENTIALS button and select API key
Create .env.local file and configure YOUTUBE_API_KEY to it
```
YOUTUBE_API_KEY=<your-api-key>
```
Open the API key settings and configure API restriction to only allow YouTube Data API v3
Add IP address restriction so other people won't be able to use your API key even if they steal it (optional but recommended)
