Hey, this is the first time I did a google search on the site. I appeared to have gotten it to work, but is was displaying advertisement at the top . I read on the google support and created a billing account with quota, but I'm getting the error code
Search results are unavailable due to a quota problem with this search engine. Learn more: https://support.google.com/programmable-search/answer/10146230

The error code page states: If you are the engine owner or administrator:

This error indicates either that the Google Cloud consumer project associated with the search engine is misconfigured or that the consumer project's daily quota is depleted.

First, as the owner of the Google Cloud project associated with this engine, review the Programmable Search Element Paid API set-up instructions to ensure that your project is configured correctly. In particular, ensure that you've created a billing account and linked your consumer project to this account.

Second, check your quota configuration. Navigate to the quota management page and compare the reported daily usage with the configured quota limit. Consider increasing this limit if you find that your usage exceeds it.

Finally, if you wish to return to the free ads-supported search element, navigate to the Programmable Search Engine control panel as the search engine owner. Select the "Setup" -> "Ads" section for your engine and delete your key from the "Programmable Search Element API key" field.

Do you know what may be causing this? I haven't really used the search under the billing yet, so I'm not sure how I met my quota. Is the code written to allow me to use the billing method?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello,

Apologies for the inconveniences caused!

Make sure that you have enabled the Programmable Search Element Paid API in the API Libraries of the Google Cloud Console for your API Key: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library .

This should fix the issue automatically.
