from this repository.

See the Get an API key guide to get an API key.
Open the secrets.properties file in your top-level directory, and then add the following code. Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your API key. Store your key in this file because secrets.properties is excluded from being checked into a version control system.
If the secrets.properties file does not exist, create it in the same folder as the local.properties file.
