Im getting this console error on my localhost when connecting to google drive API, but the picker I have configured in my script successfully displays my drive's contents:
Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('https://docs.google.com') does not match the recipient window's origin ('http://localhost:8000').
Invalid 'X-Frame-Options' header encountered when loading 'https://docs.google.com/picker?protocol=gadgets&origin=http%3A%2F%2Flocalho…2photos%22))&rpctoken=yxxydsx40r21&rpcService=2dngvfb4tj9x&thirdParty=true': 'ALLOW-FROM http://localhost:8000' is not a recognized directive. The header will be ignored.
Do I ignore this or will it introduce trouble for me down the road?

Go to the Credentials section, which can be accessed from the left side bar under Google Maps Platform > Credentials. Check that the API key you currently use on your website is listed.
Google APIs define a set of standard error payloads for error details, which you can find in google/rpc/error_details. proto. These cover the most common needs for API errors, such as quota failure and invalid parameters. Like error codes, developers should use these standard payloads whenever possible.
To fix this, check with your API provider to see if there is a testing environment that doesn't utilize caching. Alternatively, double check your API call on a different machine or with a different set of credentials. You can also check your API documentation to see if there's some cache invalidation method available.
This is a CORS issue Cross Origin Resource Sharing. You will need to add CORS on your server so that it sets correct headers. What is CORS and how to solve

There seems to be a few workarounds there for people using it as part of an Apps Script Add-on, making reference to this stack question:
Google Picker API Invalid origin value error
Though this doesn't work for the official quickstart using JavaScript.
I have tested this with Chrome and Firefox and both give the same results.
If this is affecting you please be sure to go and star the issue linked above.
