Places api uses client id (enterprise credentials) instead of apikey when both are configured

[deconinckd]

Hello,

We have an application that uses the Google API for PlacesAPI, TimeZoneApi and GeoCodingAPI.

Now we have a GeoContext spring bean defined where we set the API key and the Enterprise credentials. Which we inject in our service to use for the calls to the api's

// Config class
builder.apiKey(googleApiKey);
builder.enterpriseCredentials(googleClientId, googleCryptoKey);
builder.channel(googleChannel);	

// Call in the service
PlaceAutocompleteRequest request = PlacesApi.placeAutocomplete(context, query, googleSesionKey).language("en").await();

Whenever we do a call to the placesAPI then it builds the url like below with the client and signature instead of the apiKey

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/autocomplete/json?client=XXXXXXX&input=fa&types=%28cities%29&language=en&sessiontoken=bb1fb770-76ec-42da-b80b-7ab82dd74f23&signature=XXXX

this gives us back an error stating that an api key must be provided.

During debugging of the placesApi I notice that it adds this clientid instead of APIKey when it is provided and because of a setting canuseclient is set to true.

Is this a bug that the placesapi config is wrong as it should not seem to use this clientid? I am also not sure where this can be modified to false.

Thanks

This wasn't me. Someone hacked into my account. I have no idea what they're trying to do. What are you? Google Maps support?
