    Hi

    no it doesn’t matter because the API key provides only a simple method to query a public Google Calendar. It only allows to pull events from public calendars (from any account) so it’s not really an authentication. Google uses the API key to monitor the number of queries you are doing and to avoid abuse of its service.

    So currently you can use a single key for all your accounts – do not give away the key publicly, if others start using that key you might hit usage quota limits more easily (in the upcoming version in fact we will start removing the default API key the plugin ships with currently and users must enter their own).

    Hi Fulvio,

    Thanks.

    I have successfully obtained and set my API key – using the excellent doc associated with the plugin. However, I noted that Google have made some slight changes to the API/Project screens and your plugin’s documentation is now missing a few details etc. So you may now want to update the documentation to fully reflect these changes.

    Cheers,
    Greg
