When accessing the below link:
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json
I get the response:
{
"error_message" : "You have exceeded your daily request quota for this API.",
"results" : [],
"status" : "OVER_QUERY_LIMIT"
}
There are only two APIs listed in the Google Developers Console - both report they are under their usage limits.
Is the geocode service included in either of these and if not is there a way to check the useage or pay to upgrade?
Maps API v3 # of requests
Daily quota: 25k
28-day total: 2.37k
Static Maps API # of requests
Daily quota: 25k
28-day total: 45.21k
Thanks in advance,
Jon
Thanks to luke_mclachlan for the fix.
The URL was missing the parameter for the API key e.g.
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?key=AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYz&address=Dallas&sensor=true
What was throwing us was that without the API key there seems to be a lower limit that we were hitting by about 2:30am which didn't appear in testing.
The API key used can be found in the Google Developers Console here:
https://console.developers.google.com/project
Click your project name
Then look on the left hand menu and click "Credentials" under "APIs & auth"
The value "API KEY" is the same for all usages

Parameter Key was missing.
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?key=AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYz&address=Dallas&sensor=true
key=AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOpQrStUvWxYz
needs to be added .
Not sure this is just related to the key query param missing. I see the same misleading API response when the &language=GB®ion=UK
was replaced by my app to instead query &language=GB®ion=uk
. This is server based querying and the API access is authorised by API credentials stored with Google. The API returns:
"You have exceeded your daily request quota for this API. We recommend registering for a key at the Google Developers Console"
Response seems to be the generic repsonse for a malformed query string than anything else, key
parameter or otherwise.
Valid:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=St%20Georges%20Avenue%20Sheerness%20ME12%201QU%20United%20Kingdom&language=GB®ion=uk
Invalid:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=St%20Georges%20Avenue%20Sheerness%20ME12%201QU%20United%20Kingdom&language=GBfoobar=uk
In my case, I was passing '#' char in ?address=#202, Hollywood park
. i removed # from the address api. May be google's api is breaking on spacial character especially #
ini_set('allow_url_fopen', 'on');
//ini_set('allow_url_fopen', '1');
$address=urlencode($address);
$address = str_replace(" ", "+", $address);
$json = file_get_contents("https://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?key=AIzaSyDq-gfJDoytQE6gj0iHXEy4IZQhgLS70-8&address=$address&sensor=true");
$json = json_decode($json);
$lat = $json->{'results'}[0]->{'geometry'}->{'location'}->{'lat'};
$lng = $json->{'results'}[0]->{'geometry'}->{'location'}->{'lng'};
