✅ Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Create Your Google Cloud Project
- Go to console.cloud.google.com.

- In the sidebar, go to APIs & Services → OAuth consent screen.
- Choose External as the user type → click Create.
- Fill in App Name(any name you like).
- Example: Blogger Integration
- Add your support email — this should be the same Google account linked to Blogger.

When you create content, choose Blogger as the publishing option.
