The api key I used was deleted by the Person who gave it to me, no big deal, I can generate my own one.
I created the Project, activated the Access to the YouTube api, created my key and tryed to use it in my Project.
At first I got the message, that the key would be bad or was non existing. After a few minutes, the key seemed to be registered, but now i get a different error message:
domain: 'usageLimits',
reason: 'accessNotConfigured',
message: 'Access Not Configured. YouTube Data API has not been used in project 'my Project id' before or it is disabled. Enable it by visiting https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/youtube.googleapis.com/overview?project='my Project id' then retry. If you enabled this API recently, wait a few minutes for the action to propagate to our systems and retry.',
When I open the given URL, i just get the overview, where even is mentioned, that the API is activated:
Aktivierungsstatus
Aktiviert
I tried to delete my key, deactivate the API again, reactivate it, and create a new key. And I added my Domain to the trusted Domains.
Tried different restrictions for the calling and the APIs, and even removed all restrictions.
What could cause the problem?
I more or less (didn't) solve the Problem.
After waiting for some days Overall, and recreating keys, reactivating the api and much more, i gave up today.
Looked through many tutorials and blog Posts and just did a step by step guide on how to use the api for a WordPress YouTube Plugin.
So, i created a new Project (almost identical Name) on the same Google account, activated the api, created the api key, and on the first try, without waiting or anything, it worked.
3 Steps:
- Create a new Project
- Activate the api
- Create the api key
I dont know why this does not work on my first Project, as i did the exact identical steps.

I want to programmatically search the web using Google, and after hours of Google searching I have found this answer, but it was written in 2016 and many things have changed since then.
Following the tutorial, I created a stub custom search engine that indexes the entire internet, you can view my search engine if you want, not sure if you have permission to do so though.
Then I clicked Get started button on the right of Custom Search JSON API, got redirected here:
https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/introduction
I clicked that big Get a Key button and this happened:
Couldn't initialize
Service 'customsearch' not found or permission denied.
I searched that message and found exactly nothing relevant.
Then I went to console.cloud.google.com and enabled Custom Search API for the stub project I had to create in order to access youtube-data-api-v3:
https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/api/customsearch.googleapis.com/metrics?project=project-athena-348708
I noticed that its name is customsearch.googleapis.com and not customsearch.
Then I clicked CREATE CRENDENTIALS button and was forced to try to create a stupid nonsensical useless service account just to get an API key, because there is no other way to get an API key...
And it took forever and failed every single time...
What can I try, at this point, to get a customsearch API key?
Turns out the solution is extremely simple, in fact it is so simple it is stupid.
The solution? Don't click that big and obvious CREATE CRENDENTIALS button, because that is clearly what Google wants us users to click, and chances are extremely high that is not what you wanted.
Then how to get an API key to the service?
Well any API key associated with the project is a valid API key for any service enabled in the project, I only figured it out because API key 1 text in "Credentials" box.
But it recommended to use different API keys for different API services because each free API key has a 10,000 daily use quota.
Then how to create an API key?
Well, in the left pane, click Credentials, then click + CREATE CRENDENTIALS, then choose API key, done.
I recently asked this question and user's #DalmTo and #Sergio NH they gave me an exhaustive answer for which I thank them very much.
Moving forward to question, we started publishing the application, and its verification was not required, since no scope was added (here it is a little unclear why the requests worked in an application with a test mode in which these scope were not added (google drive, google sheet and google ads)).
However, this time the application in the "In Production" mode began to give us an "Unverified app screen" (see Unverified app screen). We decided that we still need to add scope to the list, and, of course, that the scope list (their list is described above) requires verification by Google.
We started filling in the necessary fields, while studying the Google documentation at the same time, and came across the following information (see block Verification process -> What are the requirements for verification?):
Apps not applicable for verification
Apps for internal use only
(single domain use) Apps for personal use only Apps that are Gmail
SMTP plugins for WordPress Apps that are in development or
staging/testing
Apps for personal use only
And this is just our case: we have already received permission from Google Ads and are just generating simple reports that we want to integrate with Google Sheet. I.e., this is an elementary script that works within this account (however, we still need to request the first concert screen, even for this developer account) and cannot be distributed to any other accounts.
But when adding our scope, Google requires us to pass verification, forcing us to fill in the required fields, in the form of domains and their verification via the Search Console (we have already done this and this stage does not cause difficulties) and links to Youtube videos - where we must show how scope is used.
And just this stage is not clear. We do not allow other people's accounts to connect to this application, and the software does not have any interface, it is just a script that receives data from Google Ads and saves it to Google Sheet (creating a file via Google Drive). We have described all this in the scope usage description field. But the link to the Youtube video is require field, and we sincerely do not understand why (considering our case) we should record something, and most importantly, what exactly we should record in this case. If the documentation itself says that in our case we do not even need a verification.
Maybe we did not understand something and now we are doing it wrong? We will be glad to receive any tips from experts working with Google Cloud Console and apologize in advance for broken English.
We also apologize in advance to the StackOverflow community that we have to publish such elementary (which we are absolutely sure of from our side) questions here. We come here from Google Cloud Console - > Support - > Community support, and we must first try to publish posts in the Google Groups specified there, but they simply do not answer us, apparently considering our questions too elementary and not worthy of attention (however, these same questions in Google Groups are moderated) (for example, the previous question). And we are no longer able to contact any other support. Once again, we apologize for having to ask about this here.
It is true that if your app is a single use app then you do not need to be verified.
However if you don't get your app verified then there will be some restrictions.
you will see the unverified app screen
your refresh tokens will probably only be good for two weeks.
In the case of the YouTube api uploaded videos will be suck private.
If you can live with those points then you don't need to verify your app and you can continue as is.
If on the other hand you don't want to see the unverified app screen and you want a refresh token that will last longer then two weeks. You will need to verify your app. Yes, Even if your app is a console application running as a job some where you still show the consent screen. This is the YouTube video you will need to show Google. Show the consent screen popping up show the URL bar and then show your script running. You also need to set up the homepage and privacy policy screens. Yes i 100% agree with you that this is silly.
When you go though the process. Explain to google that this is a single use script running as a job some where.
Unfortunately when Google changed it so that Refresh tokens expire for unverified apps they pretty much tied the hands of all developers who are running such single user scripts. We now have to get our apps verified if we don't want to have to request a new refresh token every two weeks.
If your program needs to access the requested scopes of the Google account privacy, even though the user is yourself, you also need to provide a youtube video to demonstrate how you use this program. The auditor cannot guarantee whether you will make this program public.
I'm playing with Actions on Google and created some projects. I've deleted all of them but I'm unable to create new ones. I receive an error messages stating that I've reached the project limit for my account. Is there a way to reset this counter once all the projects have been deleted?
Try to delete the same project on the Google CloudPlatform.
However, I fix this problem by creating a new google account or applying for additional quota for non-paid Cloud Services. I recommend the latter method, since you only need fill the application form and wait 2 work days to get approve.
I know that Airbnb haven't opened their API to the public yet, but searching the internet I found some people are using it.
I tried to contact them, and also Airbnb, but without any answers.
Does anyone here knows any contact email, page, or phone number that I can refer to?
I have read here that you can find your API key by looking at the requests that AirBNB uses in their own website. So use the web-developer tools in chrome, or firefox, or firebug in firefox and search trough the requests in the network panel until you find the key being used in any JSON request. Some urls contain this key param, you copy that :) works for me!
Oh BTW, i'd like to remind you that the API is currently not officially released to fetch data in the background while you are logged in. When you use this key, they'll know your identity. You might get blocked or at least warned by AirBNB for using their API while you are maybe not allowed to. Read their terms & conditions to make sure. I am not taking any responsibility, of course ;)
You can now find your API key on the meta tags of the source code when logged in to your dashboard. Search for canonical_host and you will find:
{"canonical_host":"www.airbnb.com","api_config":{"key":"<your-api-key>"}
Just to update this set of answers, the api is on the following address but you need to request access first.
https://www.airbnb.com/partner
It offers an FAQ that informs you about the process and it will always be updated
As far as I can tell, they have shut down this service as of today.
"Unfortunately, this is no longer available" will be what the API returns.
EDIT:
It started working again after a few days. Very odd, maybe an internal problem, or we were rate limited or something.
Log into Airbnb.com, open up the web developer console, go to the network tab, filter by type json, and look at the url and find "client_id".
I found this answer here
I'm currently upgrading one of my websites from the old system to HTML5 and I have some problems with the Google Maps JavaScript API v3. To fetch data from their API, you must have an key - of course - but it's here I have the problem.
The problem is that even if I have an correct key that I have added on their Google APIs Console I'm getting "Permission Denied" all the time, followed by an alert window that say that I don't have an real API key or it's not approved to Google Maps JavaScript API v3.
I have turned on "Google Maps API v3" in "Services" on Google APIs Console and payed the "bill" but that didn't help at all as proved. I'm using this URL to their API: http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key={MY_KEY}&sensor=false and I have readed their documentions very carefully and I'm currently out of ideas.
Do you know what's wrong here? Have I missed something or what?
In the absence of a link to check...
You can have more than one Project (dropdown, top left in the Console), and each key is tied to a project. Maps v3 must be enabled for the right project.
The seqence should be:
Choose project from the dropdown (or create one)
Choose the services required by that project
Choose collaborators if any
Set up the access keys for that project. You can have more than one key per project and specify the domains the keys can be used on.
Set up billing if you need it.
The menu on the left is set out in a logical order.
