Hi, I installed GAM and I added API access in Google Admin but when I try to use "gam create project" to finish setup, I get an error after pasting in the verification code:
"ERROR: 403: The caller does not have permission - 403"

I am using a super admin email address.

Google support told me to wait 24 hours after turning on API to allow it to propogate...does it really take a full 24 hours? Is there anything else I should check before I contact Google support for help? 


Thank you,
Dena

I'm having the exact same issue. Brand new to using GAM so happy to accept that its most likely user error however, from the little knowledge I have, I am using a super admin account so should have the required permissions.

"
gam create project
What is your Google Workspace admin email address? REDACTED
Go to the following link in your browser: REDACTED
Enter verification code: REDACTED

ERROR: 403: The caller does not have permission - 403

Yes, sometimes you also have to wait at least 24 hours. Rarely, but sometimes.

But other times you don't have access to it in Developer Console.

Quote from another thread on this.
Add yourself as an org admin in the cloud console. Then try GAM setup again.
