Whenever I try to generate service account keys for my project (on the Credentials tab), I get redirected to https://console.developers.google.com/m/decrypt, which throws a 403 error. The Corresponding ID will have a fingerprint added but no key will be downloaded to my computer. This happens for both trying to generate a JSON Key or  a P12 Key. What could be going wrong?

Hello Jonathan,

I would recommend using Chrome browser incognito window or another browser (Firefox, Safari etc) to login to your developer console in order to download the key. Multiple accounts singed into the browser sometime can cause this behavior.

Thanks
