Request rejected: API not authorised

    Hi,

    As requested by Map Block for Google, I’ve tried to create my own API Key in the Google Console, and replaced the standard AIzaSyAjyDspiPfzEfjRSS5fQzm-3jHFjHxeXB4 with our new one. Everytime I replace it in WordPress, I get this error:

    Google Maps Platform rejected your request. This API project is not authorised to use this API.

    What might be wrong? I have created an API key, it is unrestricted. Should anything else be configured in particular, such as Domain Verification or OAuth Consent Screen?

    Any help/idea would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    (I’ve running the latest version of WordPress, with the latest version of the plugin)

    Hi,

    You should restrict your API key to your domain/website once you get it working. The issue is probably that you do not have billing enabled for your Google project to which that API key belongs.

    Hi Alexandru,

    Thanks for your reply. I activated the billing for my Google account, but that changed nothing, I still get the error. How can I help debug?

    I’m not sure what else could cause it. Maybe you have some other plugin that is also loading Google Maps API with a different key and overwriting the new one.
