I'm using Google Playground for accessing Google+ APIs. When I try to call the API
https://www.googleapis.com/plusDomains/v1/people/[user_id]/circles
..then it results in error:
{
"error": {
"code": 403,
"message": "Access Not Configured. Please use Google Developers Console to activate the API for your project.",
"errors": [
{
"domain": "usageLimits",
"message": "Access Not Configured. Please use Google Developers Console to activate the API for your project.",
"reason": "accessNotConfigured"
}
]
}
}
In step 1 on the playground page, I've selected both the 'Google+ Domain API' and 'Google+ API v1' and authorized and got the access tokens. Of course, [user_id] is replaced properly before making the API call.
Found out the reason. The Google+ Domain APIs are not meant to be accessed without having a domain account configured on Google. After setting the domain account on Google, the administrator needs to set the permissions to allow the access to these APIs.
