Exceeded usage limits for Geocoding API

When accessing the below link: http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json

I get the response:

{
   "error_message" : "You have exceeded your daily request quota for this API.",
   "results" : [],
   "status" : "OVER_QUERY_LIMIT"
}

There are only two APIs listed in the Google Developers Console - both report they are under their usage limits.

Is the geocode service included in either of these and if not is there a way to check the useage or pay to upgrade?

Maps API v3 # of requests Daily quota: 25k 28-day total: 2.37k

Static Maps API # of requests Daily quota: 25k 28-day total: 45.21k

Thanks in advance, Jon

People also ask

Is there any free geocoding API?

QGIS Geocoding Plugins (Free) And the best part about QGIS is that it's completely open-source licensed under the GNU General Public License. In QGIS 3, geocoding is all in open source using the OSM Place Search plugin. OSM Place Search adds a panel with a search box.

What is the maximum limit for the number of geocode request that one can submit from a single IP address in a 24 hour period?

So the limits would be no more than 15,000 geocode requests in a 24 hour period received from a single IP address.

Does Google Maps have a limit?

This limit is 1000 addresses geocoded per month. The vast majority of our customers fall within this usage limit. If an account exceeds this limit, the account owner will be alerted via email.

Thanks to luke_mclachlan for the fix.

The URL was missing the parameter for the API key e.g.

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?key=AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYz&address=Dallas&sensor=true

What was throwing us was that without the API key there seems to be a lower limit that we were hitting by about 2:30am which didn't appear in testing.

The API key used can be found in the Google Developers Console here: https://console.developers.google.com/project

Click your project name Then look on the left hand menu and click "Credentials" under "APIs & auth" The value "API KEY" is the same for all usages

Parameter Key was missing.

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?key=AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYz&address=Dallas&sensor=true

key=AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYz needs to be added .
