Using API key with Freebase


I'm hitting the user limit of freebase while reading out information. It certainly has to do with the fact I don't use my API-Key which I generated in the Google API console.

But I don't have a clue where I've got to use the API Key? With google maps it's in the link to the javascript source.

Where can I add the API key for freebase?

I'm using this query to retrieve my information from freebase:

https://www.googleapis.com/freebase/v1/mqlread?query={....}

Solution

  • Check the docs here.

    The relevant section is:

    An API key is a unique key that you generate using the Console. When your application needs to call an API that's enabled in this project, the application passes this key into all API requests as a key=API_key parameter. Use of this key does not require any user action or consent, does not grant access to any account information, and is not used for authorization.
