I see you are using a template language. When your site is run, View Source, and confirm you see the right client ID there.


I created a new key and it worked, thanks for the support!

I have created the localhost key. and it worked with https://localhost But not working for app://localhost.

Is both URLs different? If yes then how to create a key for "app://localhost"?

I have been facing this issue since 25 Apr 2023 before this it was working for both https://localhost and app://localhost.

I have an iOS mobile app developed with Cordova, using Cordova-ios 6.2.0. In this version, the default URL scheme is app:// and a hostname can be configured in the config.xml file. So the requests from the mobile app to the backend all originate from the app://localhost.
And I have created the API key for "localhost", Which was not working.

Sorry, nope. 


it works for me, following these steps:

1. create a credential as "localhost" domain

2. generate the html or whatever you'r using

3. in VS CODE use the extension live server ( opens a port  available ) in my case :5500 or just open the port manually

4. in your browser, for me ( chrome ) it would look like these 127.0.0.1:5500/path/path/yourfile.html

 

5. change the url to localhost:5500/path/path/yourfile.html

127.0.0.1 is the same as localhost, and our domain for the API KEY is localhost so...

 

NOW IT WORKS!

 

note: if you use the port :8080 it should be work in your browser with localhost as URL, this is why 8080 is the web default port.
