Google Maps V3 API Key Invalid - but my personal dev key works
google-maps-api-3, javascript
Solution
I was able to resolve this issue by simply generating a new browser key. I generated, threw it in the browser, the map loaded. Then I went in and copied my referrers over from the previous key. Saved. Refreshed. And it still worked. I honestly think it was a bug on Google's end and the day we were generating the original keys it was spitting out invalid keys.
Problem
I've recently been doing development upgrading our maps to v3 and during development I was using my own personal key. Everything was working fine. When it was time to go to production I had someone generate a key through the company's google account and now it doesn't work. I've sat next to them making sure they were generating a browser key, and I'm pretty sure the domains are correct under the "Referrer's" section matching both: .mydomain.com/ mydomain.com/* I've verified that we are using Key for browser apps. I've verified that the Google Maps API v3 is turned ON via the services panel. Everything is identical to the way I was doing it with my key. I think the only difference is that they've enabled Billing on the company account where as my key doesn't. We'd like to get this moved off of my key seeing as how it's receiving more than the 25k views/day limit on my account. When using the company API key the map loads and then very quickly I get an alert box which reads: "Google has disabled use of the Maps API for this application. The provided key is not a valid Google API Key, or it is not authorized for the Google Maps Javascript API v3 on this site. If you are the owner of this application, you can learn about obtaining a valid key here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial#api_key" If I then replace the key with my own key, with the same referrers settings, it works.. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
