 ### Backup with Google Drive
 
-1. Create a new Docker volume with the name `ga_cache`, which Duplicity will use to temporarily store previous backups:
+1. Create a new directory somewhere on your system to use to store certain configuration files; it can be anywhere, but for the purposes of this guide, it'll be referred to as `$ga_config_dir`, and will be located in `/srv/docker/.ga`:
+
+    ```bash
+    mkdir --verbose --parents /srv/docker/.ga
+    export ga_config_dir="/srv/docker/.ga"
+    ```
+
+1. Create a new file inside `$ga_config_dir` secret with the name `ga_passphrase.txt`, which will contain the password used to encrypt backups before uploading them to Google Drive:
+
+    ```bash
+    cat "/dev/urandom" | LC_ALL="C" tr --delete --complement '[:graph:]' | head --bytes 32 > "$ga_config_dir/ga_passphrase.txt"
+    ```
+
+1. [Use the Google Cloud Console to create new OAuth credentials](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials) for a ***Desktop Application***.
+
+1. Download the resulting JSON credential file, and move it inside `$ga_config_dir` with the name `ga_gdrive_client_secret.json`:
+
+    ```bash
+    mv --verbose --interactive ./client_secret* "$ga_config_dir/ga_gdrive_client_secret.json"

+1. Create a new Docker volume with the name `ga_cache`, which will be used to temporarily store previous backups:
 
     ```bash
     docker volume create "ga_cache"

-1. Create a new Docker secret with the name `ga_passphrase` containing the password that will be used to encrypt backups before uploading them:
-
-    ```bash
-    # This command will generate a secure random password, print it to the console, and use it to create a Docker secret 
-    cat /dev/urandom | LC_ALL="C" tr --delete --complement '[:graph:]' | head --bytes 32 | tee "/dev/stderr" | docker secret create "ga_passphrase" -
