I am trying to create a project in Google Developers Console.

Note: I am the Domain Administrator.

I keep getting this error message;

Error

Developers Console has not been activated for your account. Your account may be suspended or disabled. If you are a Google Apps user, ask your domain administrator to enable Apphosting Admin on your account.

See my steps to produce the error (screen shots): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bytqhoir_Tt5QmFTazM0SzZONU0/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bytqhoir_Tt5c3BwSnA3bThCSXc/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bytqhoir_Tt5SVZZWTRfQVBTRUk/view?usp=sharing

Can anyone share some light on how to solve this issue? Please note that I am the domain administrator.

You need to enable the Cloud Console for your domain or at least the organizational unit that your user is in.

  1. Go to your domain's Control Panel : https://admin.google.com
  2. Click on the "More Google Apps" button. It might be in the "More Controls" section at the bottom of the screen. The More Google Apps button
  3. In the next screen, click on the "Filters" button and uncheck "Show top featured services" Show all the services
  4. Once done, the list of service will get quite big. Look for "Google Developers Console", click on it. Select the Google Developers Console service
  5. Enable the service Enable the service

  • HOLY CR*P @David. You are a super, super-star. That's what I have been looking for since last Friday. Why, why, why does Google make things so overly complicated and hard to find? – H. Ferrence Nov 25 '14 at 16:56
  • Wow, I am making progress now. I have been spinning my wheels for over 4 days now. This was the needle in the haystack. It would have been awesome if Google could have added a link or some better instructions in the pop-up error box for creating a new project. All it said was contact the domain administrator. But I am the domain administrator. THANKS AGAIN @David -- you saved me from the great pain and agony I've been in. – H. Ferrence Nov 25 '14 at 17:06

    Not sure if my domain has a newer or older version of the admin console, but it's moved slightly from the above answer: From the Admin home screen, click Apps, then Additional Google Services. Then you can pick up starting at step 3. – Andrew Mar 03 '15 at 16:45
  • Andrew, your tip helped me out. – soundfreak82 Jun 05 '15 at 17:18
  • This answer needs to be updated to coincide with @Andrew 's feedback – cBlaine Mar 09 '16 at 17:21

It seems to have changed slightly. I had to go to Apps

Then click the Additional Google Services

Then you can find Google Developers Console in there

And then you can Enable the service by selecting ON for everyone
