Our application relies on the Google Contacts API. Access to the Google Contacts API was disabled in our Application on August 7th, 2017 at 6pm (Pacific). Graph:
We weren't notified by Google and I'm certain we haven't hit the quota. Our users let us know and we were able to re-enable it this morning successfully.
But we're trying to figure out how this happened. Has anyone else seen API access disabled without their knowledge... or can someone from Google help us track this down?
Thanks!
Yes, had the same issue today with one of our projects that is using Google Contacts API - found Contacts API disabled...
And that came with another quite annoying issue when we started to get "unusual traffic" web page content with the CAPTCHA thing instead of error, when trying to access Google Contacts API.
The detailed issue was registered by me here, you can take a look:

I wonder if I can get working places for all users from organization using calendar API. Coworkers from my organization uses google calendar to mark if they work from home or office. I attach screen to show what I am talking about.
I've searched many endpoints from calendar API but did not find suitable one. Is it possible to get those information from API?
It is not yet possible to retrieve those information from the API.
But Google already documented it (tutorial, API reference) and it should come at some point in the (hopefully) near future.
Here is the related issue in their tracker : https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/199918380
I got the below popup when I tried to execute the google form api from google developer documentation.
I tried this same process with google docs api which work perfectly. I tried tp turn on less secure app access, but it seems google made it unavailable.
what is the other way out.
Thanks
This appears to be a bug with the try me on forms.
I have logged it on the issue form and im going to see if i can find someone at google to ping about it
Forms.get try me not working
I suspect however that this may have something to do with the app being in early access. That being said i would have expected a different error message if that was the issue.
It is most likely due to the permission for the client they are using. It is an internal error and not something you have done.
May i suggest creating your own app and testing it that way. Just remember this api is in early access so be sure that you fill out the form found on this page Google Forms API now available in open beta
Developers can apply to join our Early Adopter Program and begin developing using the Google Forms API by filling out this form.
It seems that Google Classroom API may be down this morning, is there any way to know that is the case (my code is failing, but I don't think it's my side.)
I can't find a down detector for Google Classroom API.
You can view the status of their services using Google Workspace Status Dashboard
This page provides status information on the services that are part of Google Workspace
You could also see the history of issues at the bottom link
For under Google Ads, visit Google Ads Status Dashboard
For other issues, you can visit Issue Tracker and search for related posts reported by other users.
Note:
Seems like there were no recent outages on Classroom's side based on the status dashboard.
Google acknowledged an issue regarding the Classroom API not working. It took them 6 days for it to be fixed for our District, and I have no idea how widespread the issue was.
Is it possible to change user settings in google calendar via API? What I found on their developer web documentation suggests that no, but maybe there is something I missed.
Thanks for any answers
The Google calendar api gives you access to a users google calendars. It does not give you access to change any settings for the user on the Google calendar web application thats two different things.
You can update the calendar itself changing calendar update some of the basic information about a calendar.
Unfortunately what you want cannot be achieved.
As you clearly noticed in the Calendar API documentation, the operations accepted for Calendar settings are: get, list and watch.
What you can do instead is to file a feature on request on Google Issue Tracker here.
I was checking the API reports for Contact, Calendar and Tasks. I was surprised to see that the number of requests for Contacts API is 0 for last 28 days. However we synced thousands of contacts with Google everyday. Please refer screenshot attached.
From the stats it seems that the requests we are making to Google is NOT using Contacts API.
Overview of our application's google integration:
Our application is built on Ruby on Rails.
We are using 'google-contacts' gem (https://github.com/varunlalan/google-contacts) for syncing contacts.
We authenticate user using 'omniauth-google-oauth2' gem (https://github.com/zquestz/omniauth-google-oauth2).
OAuth 2 scopes include - "userinfo.email, userinfo.profile, https://www.google.com/m8/feeds/"
Any reason why it is not making use of Contacts API or requests not being showed up in the reports?
Any help or inputs would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
just wanted to add that we're facing the same issue.
We've been using the Contacts API heavily (and we even got a 503 due to, it seems, exceeding the maximum requests/second) and yet the dashboard and the reports show 0% usage... which makes it a bit difficult to plan ahead!
After further investigation we have also seen that the per user quota is fixed at 10/user/second despite any changes to the config from the API console.
Also, the parameter quotaUser which is meant to enable developers to manage their quota more effectively is ignored.
