This API project is not authorized to use this API. Please ensure that this API is activated in the APIs Console

I have a latitude, and longitude : "-27.0000,133.0000". I want produce a map base on that.

I've tried go to this link

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=-27.0000,133.0000&key=******

I keep getting this error on the 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",
   "results" : [],
   "status" : "REQUEST_DENIED"
}

But I think I already enable that API. I log-in to my Google Console, and double check.

When I go to : https://console.developers.google.com/project/75423435770063/apiui/apis/enabled

I see :

Geocoding + Geolocating is enable.

I'm a little stuck now. Is there anything that I missed here?

I had this issue when using Place Autocomplete GET request which i used to use for my clients than it appears is no more available for new users

This product or feature is in Legacy status and cannot be enabled for new usage. For more information about the Legacy stage and how to migrate from Legacy to newer services...

Request should be send as POST request for now

1- Ensure that

Directions API

Geocoding API

Maps Javascript API

Places API

are enabled.

2- Go to Keys & Credentials tab in your Google Cloud Console.

3- Select All Google Maps Platform APIs

4- Delete the old key and then Create a new one.

It is also possible to enable APIs with the Cloud SDK. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/cloud-setup#enabling_apis

gcloud services enable \
    --project "PROJECT" \
    "geocoding-backend.googleapis.com"

https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/services/enable

It's probable that the OP enabled some, but not all, of the APIs they needed and ALSO didn't specify the enabled APIs that the key can call. There's a somewhat tricky UX feature in the Google Cloud Console for restricting access to API keys that can potentially lead to issues.

The following steps resolve the errors every time for me:

First check that the APIs you need are enabled (I've included common APIs for most basic Maps implementations at the bottom of this answer) at https://console.cloud.google.com/google/maps-apis/api-list:

And if they aren't, go to the top-left Navigation Menu > APIs & Services > Library, then select the APIs you need and click the Enable button under each one.

Next, check whether the API key is restricted by API. Do this by going to Navigation Menu > APIs & Services > Credentials then clicking the API key. If you're restricting calls from the key by API, then make sure each one you need is checked in the API list on that screen:

The tricky UX is that this list will not display all of the available APIs by default. For example, if you haven't Enabled the Places API, it will not appear on the list of APIs that the key can call until you do:

That's a minor gotcha that can lead to some confusion. The APIs that seem to get things running smoothly for most basic Maps implementations are:

Geocoding API
Geolocation API
Maps JavaScript API
Places API

In my case, I tried to solve with all of the above answers but can't solve the error.

Please check API restrictions in the Credentials.
There have 2 options "Don't restrict key" and "Restrict key".

I used the "Restrict key" option and only check the API "Maps SDK for Android" that why I got the error. Need to check what APIs do you want to use. After edit the restrict key you need to click save.

The "Don't restrict key" option should be ok (Google will be shown a security warning ⚠)
Following images show step by step.

Sending a get request with axios from a webpage, I needed (finally) to enable also Geocoding API.

I also have Places API, Maps Javascript API, and Geolocation API.

Thanks to these guys

For me, it was Maps Embed API that I had to enable.

In the Google Cloud Console

Go to API tab, look through the Additional APIs section and try to enable any map-related APIs.

From the picture you posted, it say it's disabled...

Go to the Developer Console

Navigate to Google Maps -> APIs

Search for Geocoding and click on Google Maps Geocoding API -> Enable API. Do the same thing for Geolocating

For Angular developer:

When I need to use agm-direction package, the console shows that "you have to have a credential key first, please go to here", but I already have one so I can view the google map.

Aftet a while, I found the only thing you need to do is go to Direction API and enable it, then wait for about 10s, you are good to go. The whole thing sums up that the console log didn't tell what API is needed exactly.

Had the same issue, API was enabled for my project but not for the specific API key I was using.

You should be able to see your API keys here: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials

Then click on the key you're using and enable the API for that. For me it took ~5min for the changes to take effect.

Places API and Places SDK for Android are two different APIs . Android devs enable both of them.That worked for me!

No need to enable Geocoding and Geolocating APIs they have different purposes.

I experienced the same issue on a Drupal site. After enabling the Geocoding API on the Google Cloud Platform, works for me. On my setup I require two APIs, Geocoding and Maps Javascript APIs.

Need to enable Directions API as well in the Google API Console. I have the following enabled:

Directions API
Geocoding API
Maps Javascript API

I also have Geolocation API enabled but the console doesn't show it as being used (0 requests). But maybe it's not real-time reporting so doesn't hurt to enable anyway.

You forget to enable your service in Developer console.

If you don't have the API enabled, but have an API key, you won't get that error if you run an API from the browser (such as when displaying a map) or pass the request to the curl command. You only get that error if you call an API within code. In Python, it doesn't matter if you use urllib, pycurl, construct the curl command and pass it to subprocess.check_output(), or send the request using jQuery.get(); you still get that error. I wonder how Google knows the difference.

I am late, but here's another gotcha : Google shows the API as enabled, but in fact they are not. Disable then re-enable it.

If you are using get method to fetch the places, you need to enable

Google Places API Web Service

I was facing the same issue and resolved after enabling it.

EDIT: According to https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/get-api-key

Note: The Google Places API Web Service does not work with an Android or iOS restricted API key.

So you have to create new key if or remove restricted access of existing key to work it properly.

In the API manager menu, you should be able to click overview, select the relevant API under the Google Maps APIs heading and map icon.

Your page might be using some other API's , like Places. Enable them all and see if it helps.

Google Places API Web Service Google Maps Geocoding API
