You can create whatever credentials you want. You don't need to interface with the actual device to create the credentials.

Then, you need to import the credentials to the Yealink device manually i.e. hard-code them in the exported configuration XML file and then import it to the device via the web interface. Then, you click

Directory > Google Contacts > "Sign In"

at the web interface and you go through the related consent process without a hitch. Google Contacts API is happy to let you in because the device carries the credentials you created for that same API.

Hope this helps.

Google will not let me create any credentials unless I sort out the consent stuff. I have already tried credentials from another "project" but this didn't work because that project hasn't been verified.
