After the installation process has completed, you need to generate a Google API key to use in the configuration of the add-on. Open a page of Google Cloud Console - https://console.cloud.google.com and follow the steps below:

fcc Google get key 1

fcc Google get key 2

fcc Google get key 3

fcc Google get key 4

fcc Google get key 5

fcc Google get key 6

fcc Google get key 7

Once you've generated an API key, you have to copy it into the Google API key field of the add-on configuration. To achieve this, navigate Config → Module Lists locate the splynx_addon_fcc_export module and click on the Edit in the Actions column:
