Did I miss the memo? Was it in one of those million emails from Google that I deleted? The API console has all changed and there is no longer access to previously created API keys..... although those old keys still appear to work.
I don't think I have created any new API keys in the last month or so but the console has completely changed. Although it recognises me as a registered developer I have no access to previous projects but instead I am invited to sign up for a free trial. The pricing regime after the trial has changed a little but not so much as to start incurring charges for the little I use it. I have not created a new key yet but a lot of information seems to be demanded around oAuth, support email address and potential access to user's Google account info.
It used to be so easy.......
Added.... I believe there is a tutorial in the forums somewhere about how to create keys. That might need updating!
