Error REQUEST_DENIED in Google-Maps (MMM-google-route)

[CanbiZ]

Hi, guys,

I finished tinkering with my mirror today.
I wanted to get an early morning update on my commute.

Therefore I use MMM-google-route (or are there better alternatives (optical / functional)?)
I have adapted the destinations ;-)

	{
        module: 'MMM-google-route',
        position: 'bottom_left',
        config: {
            key: 'AIzaSyDuzRUs_n4gf2DMK2uZxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
            directionsRequest:{
                origin: 'Willy-Brandt-Platz, 04109 Leipzig',
                destination: 'Terminalring 11, 04435 Schkeuditz'
            }
        }
    }

As soon as I start the mirror, only a “grey” window appears, with the hint
Google directions service status:
REQUEST_DENIED

I created the API key half an hour ago. (https://console.developers.google.com/) API Key for Javascript?

@CanbiZ not javascript… for Maps…

also, u have to create a billable account, with credit card… else won’t work.

I have the same issue, this is weird because I have already had a billable account which has a running Kubernetes cluster, I did everything but google returning the “REQUEST DENIED”.
