How to create Public api key for a google project

How to setup a google project api key.i want to use google directory apis. and have to retrieve user's list in the domain.In google Api explorer(https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/#p/admin/directory_v1/directory.users.list) i authorized and get the list of all users in my domain.but when i use node.js for retrieving the users's list in response i am getting 

{
 "error": {
  "errors": [
   {
    "domain": "global",
    "reason": "badRequest",
    "message": "Bad Request"
   }
  ],
  "code": 400,
  "message": "Bad Request"
 }
}

here is small snippet of node.js code

var request = require('request');

    var request1 = {url : 'https://www.googleapis.com/admin/directory/v1/users',
    headers :{'Authorization' : 'Bearer '+bodyy.access_token},query:{
        domain : 'iritesh.com',key:'AIzaSyBrTEYAap74npiUhKWGp0eLcPY1kBMnTIk'
    },method : 'GET'};
    request(request1,function(err,ress,body){
        console.log('body is');
        console.log(body);
    res.render('index',{title: 'Express'});

    });

i doubt i am getting this error because i didn't set up public key properly.my system ip address is 103.245.XX.XX and i have setup same IP address in Project console.can anyone please guideline what should i fill in allowed Server IP addresses when i am using localhost.am i doing any mistake??i enabled API Access in Admin Console also.my system admin is [email protected] and domain is iritesh.com.temporarily i hardcoded it,please ignore this.i am attaching snapshot related to that.

It looks like you have a syntax error in your code: 

bodyy.access_token

should maybe be?

body.access_token

for starters Users: list requires authorization which means you will need to use Open authentication and not a public API key.

Documentation for users: list 

Users: list    
Requires authorization

Answer: your code doesn't work because you are trying to use a public api key with a API that requires Authentication.
