Using Chromium with my API Keys + Chrome at the same time

[TN]

Hey,

just a quick question, because I could not find anything on this:

Is it possible to use a custom Chromium build or the development snapshots of Chromium (with my API keys set as environment vars, as mentioned here: https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/api-keys) and the official Google Chrome build at the same time? Or are there any side effects? Which API keys get used by Chrome Official when I set up my keys in the environment? Or does Chrome always uses it's own, internal keys, regardless of any other settings?

OS is Windows 10, by the way.

Regards

T.

The quickest way is to simply try?

In case it affects Chrome as well (I suspect it does, but just test it using the value "NO" or "no"), you can always create a CMD script that sets the environmental variable for the specific instance of Chromium you want to launch.

I could've sworn that this was a quick and easy question that already came up before. Maybe not?

Is there are way to quickly check the API usage status from within Chrome/Chromium? An internal page, just like 'chrome://version' or something?

If not, I guess it's not so simple to just try it out. Besides, I need to create a new profile first, add some stuff there (bookmarks etc.), before I'd attempt to try this, I'm not gonna risk running into any syncing issues with my main profile..

You make it sound like it is a big procedure... Just run chrome --user-data-dir="%temp%\newprofile" and try to log in, it should simply fail, or possibly not even show the login screen.
