# API Key restrictions

So you have generated your key successfully. However, there are still a few other things you need to set up, like security to prevent anyone else misusing your key, as well as setting a budget so that you won't be charged more than you can afford.

Now the API key is generated. To avoid misuse, you need to set in [Google APIs](https://console.developers.google.com/apis/).

Once inside the site → Click **Credentials.**

Now in the API key settings site, there are some adjustments that need to be done.

Firstly, you need to change the key name  - as a general rule, it is named follow the site name or project name

In the **Key restrictions** you can see 2 tabs:

### **Application restrictions**

{% hint style="warning" %} <mark style="color:red;">**Note: If you use this tab, you need adding our app domain:**</mark> [<mark style="color:red;">**https://sl.storeify.app**</mark>](https://sl.storeify.app/*)<mark style="color:red;">**/\*, it is required.**</mark>
{% endhint %}

Select the option **HTTP referrers (web sites)** and enter the website name in the field. Use the format \*.[example.com/](http://example.com/). Any string can replace the asterisk, means that is even for subdomains. Also, you need adding our app domain: <https://sl.storeify.app/*> or \*.storeify.app/\* (the example image below)
