The Google My Business API client libraries provide improved language integration and simplified user authentication. Before working with the Google My Business API you need to register your application and obtain OAuth 2.0 credentials. See [Basic Setup](https://developers.google.com/my-business/content/basic-setup) for details on how to start working with the Google My Business API. **Note**: These instructions assume a Unix-like environment. ## Client library downloads Visit the [Libraries](https://developers.google.com/my-business/samples) page to get the latest Google My Business API client libraries. The Google My Business API client library makes use of the [Google API Client Libraries](https://developers.google.com/api-client-library) for error handling, managing requests and responses, OAuth, and other common functionality. A [Discovery document](https://developers.google.com/my-business/samples#discovery_document) is available to aid in auto-generating your own client libraries if support for your programming language of choice is not available for download. ## Example client library usage Visit [GitHub](https://github.com/google/google-my-business-samples) to view and download full samples of working with client libraries.
