Live data keys

Paste your Google Places and YouTube API keys here to verify they work. Needio checks them server-side and never keeps them in your browser.

Google Places API key

Once a key checks out, save it in Project Settings → Secrets as GOOGLE_PLACES_API_KEY. Secrets live outside the app code so the key is never shipped to a browser — that is why this page verifies the key but does not store it.

YouTube Data API key

Once this key checks out, save it in Project Settings → Secrets as YOUTUBE_API_KEY. Needio only uses it server-side, so videos show up on business pages without the key ever leaving the backend.

Getting a Google Places key

  1. Google Cloud Console → pick a project with billing enabled.
  2. APIs & Services → Library → enable Places API (New).
  3. APIs & Services → Credentials → + Create credentials → API key.
  4. Copy the value under Key — 39 characters, starts with AIza.
  5. Application restrictions: None or IP addresses — never HTTP referrers for a server key.

Getting a YouTube key

  1. Google Cloud Console → same billing-enabled project.
  2. APIs & Services → Library → enable YouTube Data API v3.
  3. APIs & Services → Credentials → + Create credentials → API key.
  4. Copy the value under Key — 39 characters, starts with AIza.
  5. Application restrictions: None or IP addresses — never HTTP referrers.
