Google places api request denied error

I am using google palces api for autocomplete textview in my android project. I have enabled the api key. I am using a server key but all the time I have this error when I call the service through a browser :

{
   "error_message" : "This API project is not authorized to use this API. Please ensure that this API is activated in the APIs Console: Learn more: https://code.google.com/apis/console",
   "predictions" : [],
   "status" : "REQUEST_DENIED"
}

And same error in android debugger.

As mentioned in the error, you have to go to the Google Developers Console, then open APIs & auth -> APIs and enable the Google Places API Web Service which include the autocomplete feature :

Find detailed information about places across a wide range of categories. Backed by the same database used by Google Maps and Google+, the Google Places API Web Service features about 100 million businesses and points of interest that are updated frequently through owner-verified listings and user-moderated contributions. Key features include autocomplete, search, place picker, photos and add place.

enter image description here

Hope that can help.
