Where do I find my Google Font API Key? (Newbie)

I am working on a Wordpress site.
Woothemes framework, Canvas theme from Woothemes.
Have installed the plugin Google Webfonts for Woo Framework.
So far - so good.
Now I need a Google Font API key.
So I have a registered developer account, and a Google Font project up and running via GoogleCloud Console. I have activated the Google Font API in the API list.
But I can't find my Google Font API Key!
I've followed the instructions as given here: https://developers.google.com/fonts/docs/developer_api
It says:
"To acquire an API key, visit the APIs Console. In the Services pane, activate the Google Fonts Developer API; if the Terms of Service appear, read and accept them. (Edit: Done this!)
Next, go to the API Access pane. The API key is near the bottom of that pane, in the section titled "Simple API Access."(Can't find this at all!)
Any ideas?
Sorry if this is a terribly simple question!
Kind regards
Annelie

What is Google Fonts API key?

It allows apps to query Google Fonts for the available font families. The REST API supplies data in the JSON format that includes the styles and scripts (called subsets in Google Fonts) in each family. The API can sort the list of families alphabetically, by date added, by number of styles, by trend, or by popularity.

How do I add Google Fonts to API in HTML?

To add google fonts, search for the google fonts, select the font category and family, then select the font style of your choice. Once you select the font, “copy the font link”, from the “selected families windows” and paste it in the head section of the HTML file.

Maybe the help page is a bit behind and refers to the 'old' console.
