It doesn't appear that it's possible to create an API key using gcloud. It would be useful if users could create API keys using this command line tool.

Also an integration into the google deployment manager would make sense, right now it isn't possible to do fully automated project creations without a way to generate the API keys. (whether through gcloud nor DM)

I would also like the ability to use gcloud to list existing API keys and restrictions applied to them. Although I don't expect the ability to re-create a key with the same value in a different project, I would at least like to be able to list what keys exist in a given project for backup and/or other purposes.

It would be extremely helpful if API keys could be managed (along with HTTP referrers) via CLI. We have over 300 client projects that we need to manage API keys and referrer restrictions for, and being able to do it programatically would make things much better.

Any progress on this?

We are automating our scripts and require this functionality. Any ETA on this?

Google is working on an API to manage API keys. We will post updates on the progress of that in

b/35829646

.

The API is the primary functionality and gcloud support generally follows promptly so I'll mark this issue as a duplicate of that one.

ma...@google.com <ma...@google.com> #10Feb 8, 2019 10:21AM

Correction (sorry!):

issue 35829646

includes other aspects. Let's keep the gcloud support separate! Please watch

issue 35829646

if you specifically want updates on the API.

Any update on how to manage API key from gcloud command?

ma...@dunnhumby.com <ma...@dunnhumby.com> #12May 3, 2019 08:21AM

This is becoming quite a big issue for us, is there any progress in regards to this request?

nu...@gmail.com <nu...@gmail.com> #13Jun 8, 2019 09:39PM

Any ideas if this is planned and when it will be available?

Need an update on Google Maps API if the feature for generating API keys programmatically is available now.

[Deleted User] <[Deleted User]> #15Sep 5, 2019 08:03PM

Still no API key from gcloud? Annoying...

ri...@mindloops.nl <ri...@mindloops.nl> #16Oct 13, 2019 10:31AM

+1, since Google Cloud Endpoints offers API key integration I would expect a gcloud command would be available to create API keys.

ga...@xpo.com <ga...@xpo.com> #17Oct 22, 2019 05:43PM

I would like to be able to automate this using either gcloud or REST; the latter being useful for building terraform scripts.

na...@google.com <na...@google.com> #18Jan 7, 2020 06:59PM

+1 We would also like the functionality of listing API keys.

Modification of HTTP referrers on our wishlist, too!

BTW there is a workaround for programmatically interacting with the API keys assigned to a project. The folks over at Rhino Security Labs found the API endpoint https://apikeys.googleapis.com and released some content about how to list and create keys via python or simple CURLs. You can find their blog post here: https://rhinosecuritylabs.com/cloud-security/privilege-escalation-google-cloud-platform-part-2/

and the API documentation here: https://cloud.google.com/api-keys/docs/overview

This looks to be very early alpha so use at your own risk!

Now developers should be able to list API keys in a project with the gcloud CLI:

You need to install gcloud, following the instructions at: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/install#installation_instructions.
You need to check if the alpha component is installed already: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/components#listing_components.
If gcloud alpha its already installed, should make sure all components are up-to-date: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/components#updating_components

After all this has been done, you can query the list of API keys with:

$ gcloud alpha services api-keys list or for a specific project: $ gcloud alpha services api-keys list --project=<project_id>

And perform other API keys management operations with the additional commands available in next SDK reference doc: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/alpha/services/api-keys

Note: The REST API is currently under development by the engineering team.

Google estimate that API Keys REST API could have a limited Preview in H1 2021 (January-June), however still cannot provide an ETA or guarantee its implementation at this point in time.

The REST endpoints and gRPC endpoints are available

But no gcloud command yet. However, a curl command will do the trick: https://cloud.google.com/api-keys/docs/create-manage-api-keys

[Deleted User] <[Deleted User]> #31May 9, 2023 10:04AM

there's a gcloud command: `gcloud alpha services api-keys create`
