Hello,

I know this is weird but somehow I cannot find the Google API key that I got but I do have it stored in the workbench file for years now, in the Geocoder transformer.

 

Any idea how/if I could retrieve the API Key somehow? Many thanks

One way to retrieve this:

  • Copy paste the transformer to a new workspace.
  • Add a Creator upstream to initiate the transformer.
  • Go to Tools, Options, Translation, Log Message Filter and check the Log Debug box.
  • Run the workspace.
  • Look in the translation log for "&key="

Important, do not forget to uncheck the Log Debug box after you're done as it will drive you nuts when you don't need it. I believe it will affect performance as well.
