Cant create Google API Token

Clubjack

Hey together.

Yesterday I tried to get a token from Google API.
Unfortunately that didn’t work.
I couldn’t follow the instructions completely because there have been a few visual changes.

Can someone confirm that there are currently problems creating a token?

@Clubjack Google what api token?

@Clubjack you need to provide a billing information, usually your credit card. Google allows you to use the API free of charge for one year. After that they ask you to pay for the service. They don’t charge you immediately after the trial period, but just block the API access until you agree to use the service further and to be charged.

here on this page you will find a dropbox download link of a manual that was made for me because i couldn’t get out either (made by sdetweil)
this will guide you through the difficult steps (that’s how I managed to make it after days of searching and trying)
here u go, https://www.dropbox.com/s/3rug57k78murz30/gaconfig.zip?dl=0

unzip and open the GA-config.md with then atom editor, and press ctrl-shift-m twice

@Clubjack i am assuming you mean the Google Assistant API… as @raf mentions above , Google completely changed how you setup up use the GA api… and @Bugsounet is busy with his new job and home.

I have another app that needs to understand this process, so I made a new set of instructions.
these only get you the info you need to continue the older instructions. (I think at step 5)
