The Google Play Services credentials documentation from Revenue Cat walks through a step (1) in the API Access page of the Google Play Console. However, that page no longer exists:
Can step 1 be ignored now?
PS: Google Play docs definitely need to be updated.

Having the same issue. Would appreciate any updates.
Thanks,
Hi @pedro-sales-muniz / @salva
Thanks for reporting it, I’ve shared this internally to get it updated….
Once enabled, it will tell you hat you need credentials and a buttion to create them and you can follow from there
Let me know how it goes
Hi @MarcosC , and thanks for the reply!
I already had a google cloud / firebase project, and had already followed all the steps except the 1st, so simply enabling the Google Play Android Developer API did it for me!
For future reference, I was having issues validating my credentials (inappproducts API and monetization API).
Once you created the service account, you should invite the services account in the
Users and permissions on google play console and add those permissions
Thank you @MarcosC for the help and reply. This worked for me.
But upon uploading the Service Account Credentials JSON, there was a warning “Credentials need attention” and “Could not validate subscriptions API permissions”. Is this the one that we should wait for within 36 hours?
Thank you.
Yeah, that can take up to 36 hours to propagate.
The reason we return we couldn’t validate subscriptions API is basically because we don’t have any purchase token to try it out. What I would suggest you to do is:
Create some products in google console
Import them into RevenueCat
Configure an offering
Try a purchase flow in sandbox to see if the purchase works. (this is what might fail because of the propagation time)
same issue for me trying to setup a new project, documentation page should be updated
@evgenia-7caf19 this is a recent change from Google. We are working on updating our docs. In the meantime you can follow what I mentioned here
