How to get past "Access Not Configured" error

I am trying to create a Google Spreadsheet function to shorten URLs.

I have this code :

function shortenUrl(_longurl) {
  var url = UrlShortener.Url.insert({longUrl: _longurl});
  Logger.log('Shortened URL is "%s".', url.id);
}
function testMinifyGoogl() {
    longurl = 'https://maps.google.com/maps';
    shortenUrl(longurl);
}

I have several Google login IDs for testing purposes. I experience the same problem repeating the above with two different ones.

In all cases I get back : "Access Not Configured. Please use Google Developers Console to activate the API for your project. (line 7, file "Code")"

As reference I am reading : https://developers.google.com/apps-script/advanced/url-shortener. After reading up on access requirements, I went to [Resources] >> [Advanced Google services] in my script editor and activated URL Shortener API. I followed the link from there to "Google Developers Console" and enabled the same API there.

Am I doing something wrong or is the service broken?

I do not think I require an access key. I am logged in to Google already, in order to use the spreadsheet! Also, when I run the script I do get a request for permission to access my short urls!

Solution

Url shortener is still working nicely, see app here (asks for authorization )

code below to illustrate if ever someone is interested :

var User = new Object(),
Url  = new Object();
User.email = Session.getActiveUser().getEmail();

function doGet() {
  var app = UiApp.createApplication().setTitle('url_shortener');
  var panel = app.createVerticalPanel().setStyleAttributes({'padding':'40px','backgroundColor':'#fafacc'});
  var longUrlLabel = app.createLabel( 'Enter the long url starting with http:// you will receive an email with the short url immediately.' );
  var longUrlBox = app.createTextBox().setName( 'longUrl' ).addClickHandler(app.createClientHandler().forEventSource().setText(''))
  .setText( 'http://' ).setWidth('500');
  var shortUrlLabel = app.createHTML().setId( 'shortUrlLabel' ).setVisible( false );
  
  
  var handler = app.createServerHandler( 'buttonOnClickListener' ).addCallbackElement( panel );
  var button = app.createButton( 'SUBMIT',handler ).setStyleAttributes({'border-radius':'5px'});
  
  var grid = app.createGrid(8,1).setId('grid')
  .setWidget(0,0,longUrlLabel )
  .setWidget(2,0,longUrlBox )
  .setWidget(4,0,button )
  .setWidget(6,0,shortUrlLabel);
  
  return app.add( panel.add(grid));
}

function buttonOnClickListener( eventInfo ) {
  var app =UiApp.getActiveApplication();
  var toShorten = UrlShortener.newUrl().setLongUrl(eventInfo.parameter.longUrl);
  var shortened = UrlShortener.Url.insert(toShorten);
  Url.short = UrlShortener.Url.insert(toShorten);
  Url.long = eventInfo.parameter.longUrl;
  sendMail();
  app = UiApp.getActiveApplication();
  app.getElementById( 'shortUrlLabel' ).setVisible(true).setHTML('<li>Short url = <b>'+Url.short.id+'</b></li><li>Mail sent ...</li>');
  app.getElementById('grid').setWidget(7,0,app.createAnchor('test (with redirect warning)', Url.short.id));
  
  return app; 
}

function sendMail() {
  GmailApp.sendEmail( User.email, "UrlShortener", 'Long url (original) = '+Url.long+"\n\n\nShort url = "+Url.short.id);
}


function GetShortUrlClicks() {
  var analytics = UrlShortener.Url.get('http://' + 'goo.gl/UxlNQs',{projection:'FULL'}).getAnalytics();
  var clicks = analytics.getWeek();
  Logger.log(clicks);
}
