There are 2 ways of authenticating: token (default) or credentials.
By default, gplaycli fetches a token from a token dispenser server located at https://matlink.fr/token/ to login in Google Play. If you want to use another token dispenser server, change its URL in the configuration file (depends on the way you installed it).
If you want to use your own Google credentials, put
token=False
in the config file and type in your credentials in
gmail_address=
gmail_password=
variables.
