Google PageSpeed and other API keys

Some panel tools use your own keys from other services. Google PageSpeed powers the PageSpeed speed test on the Websites list. reCAPTCHA v2 adds spam protection to the forms on your sites. Both are added in your account settings.

Troubleshooting

Section titled “Troubleshooting”
  • “Your PageSpeed API key is not set. Please set it on the Settings page.” Add your PageSpeed key as above, then run the check again.
  • “PageSpeed failed.” or “PageSpeed did not return a score for this site.” The check did not complete. Make sure the key is valid and the PageSpeed Insights API is enabled in your Google project.
