How to get the project ID from API key for GCM?

For validating the api key we can use the following command,

curl --header "Authorization: key=API_KEY" --header CType:"application/json" https://android.googleapis.com/gcm/send -d "{\"registration_ids\":[\"ABC\"]}"

Is there any way , the project id (sender id ) can be validated against the API key for GCM?

Is there any way to get project id with api key or vice versa?

When you send POST request to GCM server, GCM is validating the apikey againest the sender id, so it is validating both sender id and apikey, if your registration_ids was genarated with a faulty sender id, GCM will return a NotRegistered error
