This document is intended for developers who want to write applications thatcan interact with the Books API.Google Books has a mission to digitize theworld's book content and make it more discoverable on the Web. The Books API isa way to search and access that content, as well as to create and viewpersonalization around that content.
Every request your application sends to the Books API needs to identify your application to Google. There are two ways to identify your application: using an OAuth 2.0 token (which also authorizes the request) and/or using the application's API key. Here's how to determine which of those options to use:
Your application must use OAuth 2.0 to authorize requests. No other authorization protocols are supported. If your application uses Sign In With Google, some aspects of authorization are handled for you.
Some flows include additional steps, such as using refresh tokens to acquire new access tokens. For detailed information about flows for various types of applications, see Google's OAuth 2.0 documentation.
To request access using OAuth 2.0, your application needs the scope information, as well asinformation that Google supplies when you register your application (such as the client ID and theclient secret).
OAuth 2.0: Whenever your application requests private user data, it must send an OAuth 2.0 token along with the request. Your application first sends a client ID and, possibly, a client secret to obtain a token. You can generate OAuth 2.0 credentials for web applications, service accounts, or installed applications.
The API supports several types of restrictions on API keys. If the API key that you need doesn't already exist, then create an API key in the Console by clicking Create credentials > API key. You can restrict the key before using it in production by clicking Restrict key and selecting one of the Restrictions.
You need to specify ID fields with certain API method calls. There are threetypes of IDs used within Google Books:
Google Books respects copyright, contract, and other legal restrictionsassociated with the end user's location. As a result, some users might not beable to access book content from certain countries. For example, certain booksare "previewable" only in the United States; we omit such preview links forusers in other countries. Therefore, the API results are restricted based onyour server or client application's IP address.
This request has a single required parameter:
