Google reCAPTCHA

Setup

To get the Google reCAPTCHA v2 keys (site key and secret key), follow these steps:

• Access the reCAPTCHA Admin Console by navigating to the Google reCAPTCHA website and click on the "Admin Console" link.
  • You may need to log in with your Google account.
• Register a New Site: Click the "+" button or the option to "Register a new site."
• Provide Site Details:
  • Label: Enter a descriptive name for your reCAPTCHA instance (e.g., "My Website Contact Form").
  • reCAPTCHA type: Select "reCAPTCHA v2."
    • You can then choose between the "I'm not a robot" checkbox, Invisible reCAPTCHA badge, or Android.
  • Domains: Add the domain(s) of your website where the reCAPTCHA will be used.
  • Accept Terms of Service: Read and accept the reCAPTCHA Terms of Service.
• Submit: Click the "Submit" button.

Retrieve Keys

• After submitting, Google will generate a Site Key and a Secret Key for your reCAPTCHA v2 instance. Copy both of these keys.
• Navigate in Admin to Settings > Website > Google settings and click "add site key and secret key."

• Paste the already copied Site key and Secret key into the corresponding section, and click "Submit".

• These keys are essential for integrating reCAPTCHA v2 into your website or application.
• The Site Key is used on the client-side to render the reCAPTCHA widget, while the Secret Key is used on the server-side to verify user responses.
