Hello, I have been trying to setup google play game services for 2 days now, but I cannot get to show the leaderboard after all this time I realized that I am missing this code in my config.lua

license = {        google = { key = "longKey",},    },

Now, I cannot get to know where can I get my license key from? I know appID is their but no license key. Can you please guide me how can I get this license key?

Don’t forget you can always use Google to find answers to your questions.  For instance, I opened google.com, type in “google license key”, and at the very top it explains exactly how to find it.

Yes I have used google to find it but the thing is my app is not been published to the app store yet. I am trying to test the leaderboard now. Do I have to publish my app to the app store to test it out? If I publish my app to the app store and then get my license key then I will have to make a new build again this time with the license key and upload the new one?

I don’t see anywhere that it says you need to publish your app.  First you create your app in Google dev console before you can do anything else with testing leaderboard or publishing

Thanks! that solved my problem! I was following the guide provided by corona and it simply said to go and add leaderboard and achivemnts and also did not mention anything about this license key. Thanks again!

Let me post back if I can see the leaderboard now…

I have added the licence key but however still I can’t get the leaderboard to showup. Here is my config file please have a look:

 application =      {     license = {         google = { key = "MY KEY HERE",},     },             content =         {             width = 360, -- etc...... Rest is fine

Can you please guide me through skype?
