## 🔍 Google API Keys Configuration
!!! note
This section is optional. Use the official Google API if search attempts return
error 429. To use the `google` command, you need to set up your
Google API key in your environment variables or pass it with configuration to the [`WebSearchComponent`](../../forge/components/built-in-components.md).
Create your project:

page and clicking *New Project*

the Custom Search API on your project. (Might need to wait few minutes to propagate.)
