Using Google Places API requires an API key. I remembered I registered for one and used it successfully, but this was several months ago. Now I can't find this key!! Any clue of where I can look it up again? I tried to look through my Google account but no success!
Thanks,

Warning: You must have a Google account with billing enabled to generate a key for Google Maps API.
When you use API keys in your Google Cloud Platform (GCP) applications, take care to keep them secure. Publicly exposing your credentials can result in your account being compromised, which could lead to unexpected charges on your account.
The API secret key is used to identify your account. You will be asked to provide one to connect to some of our services like the Google Sheets Add-on and the API functionalities. You can find your API secret key in the API page on your dashboard. You can also create new API keys in the same section if necessary.
API keys are required for apps and projects that use the Google Maps Platform APIs and SDKs.
In order to use the Places API you do need a developer key, at least if you want to go over 1000 queries a day. You registered for it in the Google API Console, and you can find it again there.

This appears to work for me - I 'lost' my API Key ages ago
