I search for a similar question but found some outdated and unanswered ones.
So basically I am just trying to play around with Google Partners API and pull some data for now using Google's API Explorer, so:
- I create a brand new project in Google Cloud Platform
- Go To API and Enable Google Partners API the right there and then click on Try it in Google API Explorer.
- But the problem I get the 403 error on any request I tried to make.
In the API Explorer docs https://developers.google.com/explorer-help/ it says I do not need to provide an API key since they use their own.
My understanding is that I should be able to pull the data - but for some reason no matter what I try, I still get this 403.
Note: like I mentioned I am at least trying to make it work within their API explorer.
What am I missing there?
{
"error": {
"code": 403,
"message": "The caller does not have permission",
"status": "PERMISSION_DENIED"
}
}
Update:
So it appears that you do have to have a permission to call their API. I do have an API key - but it still says I need a permission. I am the primary user of the account so I have no limitations that I could think of on the account.
I will keep digging and see what I find out.
Analyzing their Google Partner Interface web requests, you can see the &key=AIzaSyCi4oosxbZoHR65JXdMVy7eVR......
So logically, this caller, which is identified by this API can make calls. So I went to Google API Explorer and plugged their API key and made a request - and surely got the 200 response back. I put my API key back in there to test with the same set up - PERMISSION_DENIED.
Will continue researching though there is not much left to read. Hope my Google bros will help me out here and let me know how to get the permission.
