Google maps api key not working anymore

Hi all,

I'm using the google maps api key a few years now. This was working fine. Only since this week It isn't working anymore.

This is the script:

LOAD
'$(vStation)' as STNR,
'$(vStationsnaam)' as Stationsnaam,
'$(vStationsnaamlang)' as Stationsnaamlang,
'$(vCustomer)' as Customer,
'$(address)' as Address,
'$(vCountry)' as Country,
[result/geometry/location/lat] as latitude,
[result/geometry/location/lng] as longitude
FROM [https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=$(address)&key=MyKey] (XmlSimple, Table is [GeocodeResponse]);

If I put the created url in the webbrowser I'm returning this message:

Who can help me with this?

my be the api key is expired or no longer valid due to missing payment infos?!?!

Did you enter your creditcard infos into the google console?

https://console.cloud.google.com/google/maps-apis/

As far as i know you cant use the api without providing your cc infos any longer,

but you will get a monthly 200€ voucher for free api calls. Only if the 200€ are consumed

you will have to pay for any further api call.

Hi Frank,

as far as I can see is the key is not expired and the credit card is mapped to the google account.

Is there something special that should be activated?
