Q:

Google API Service Account and nodejs

I want to be able to programmatically update a Youtube playlist using nodejs. In theory, this is possible using the Google API and jsonc.
As I want to do this without user interaction I have been battling with using a Google API Service Account on nodejs server. 
Notice there is no API Client Library for Javascript listed on this page.
I then stumbled across this message in the Google documentation for using Service Accounts with Google Drive:

For security reasons service accounts are not supported in client-side Javascript. Service accounts for server-side Javascript is not yet supported.

Is this saying that what I want to achieve is not possible? I cannot use a Service Account on a NodeJS server to make changes to a playlist without user interaction?

A:

Correct. Not yet supported. There have been security problems with service accounts.  This may become possible in the future.
