API URL for internal google earth enterprise - google-maps

My company has an internal google earth enterprise server. I can get to it via http://local/default_map
I like to switch from the public API server, <script src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?v=3&sensor=false"></script>, to the internal one.
But http://local/maps/api/js?v=3&sensor=false returns Forbidden error: You don't have permission to access /maps/api/js/ on this server.
How can I find out if the internal server supports the API feature and how to configure it?

How to access secured API Management APIs linked to an Azure Static Web Application for local development with swa cli

How to call the secured API management linked APIs configured in azure portal when developing locally using SWA CLI? All I observed in the SWA configuration is meant for functions as APIs not the APIM.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/static-web-apps/apis-api-management
When adding API Management APIs to an azure static web app, an automatic proxy product is created on APIM securing access to the API for this app via /api prefix on the static web app domain. I did not see any mentions of how this works for local development to pass the user claims from SWA emulator to the API via that proxy?
I was trying to do this recently and I don't think it's possible. My solution was to add a proxy to my dev server (in my case vite) to proxy all requests to the /api route to the Api Management URL, setting the necessary subscription key header.

How to protect the Backend API against calls other than Azure API Management

I have an ASP.NET Core REST API Service hosted on an Azure Web App. I own its source code and I can change it if required.
I am planning to publish REST API Service with Azure API Management.
I am adding Azure AD authentication to the Azure API Management front. So, the API management front is secured. All the steps are is described here.
All good so far. Here is the question (or challange?) :
Considering that my backend REST API Service is hosted on Azure and publicly accessible, how do I protect it against the request calls other than the API Management Calls?
How the backend service knows the identity and AAD group claims of the incoming call and access to its claims?
A link to a code sample or online documentation would be a great help.
Update
While there are some overlaps with the follwoing question:
How to prevent direct access to API hosted in Azure app service
... part of this question is still outstanding:
How the backend service knows the identity and AAD group claims of the incoming call and access to its claims?
You can enable static IP restriction on your WebApp to only allow incoming traffic from the VIP of your APIM Service facing ( keep in mind in some specific scenarios , the VIP may change and will be required to update the whitelist again).
Clients ==> AAD==> VIP APIM Service <==> (VIP APIM allowed) Web App

Getting 401 Unauthorized error on google API

I am learning how to use Google Drive API to upload a file and I am getting this error:
"Client error: `POST https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token` resulted in a `401 Unauthorized` response:\n{\n \"error\": \"unauthorized_client\",\n \"error_description\": \"Client is unauthorized to retrieve access tokens using this me (truncated...)\n"
I think this stem from a wrong configuration of my service account. When I created my service account, I didn't use Enable G Suite Domain-wide Delegation and just used the generated json key.
Attached here is a screenshot of my IAM & ADMIN
I also enabled API for google drive, so what am I missing?
You have to create a client id for the service account and with that id you have to enable the SCOPE in security - advanced configuration

Using Google Compute API automated over as server

I'm using the Google client API library for Python. My code is running on an Ubuntu 14.04LTS server.
I have a working Google Compute project, were I created and downloaded a OAuth2.0 token to my server.
I'm trying to write a script that does the following:
Automatically (with no user interaction) authenticate to Google Compute engine.
create a new VM and then perform more actions...
My basic problem is using the OAuth2.0 authentication. It required user approval on a javascript supporting browser, and I want to do it automatically, on my server.
Using my code on my desktop works. A browser page pops up requiring my approval. On my server, I get the following message:
we have detected that your javascript is disabled in your browser
The code segment I use for authentication is:
# authenticate using the OAuth token
client_secret = os.path.join(
os.path.dirname(__file__),
self._oauth_token_path)
# set up a Flow object for the authentication
flow = client.flow_from_clientsecrets(
client_secret,
scope=scope,
message=tools.message_if_missing(client_secret))
# open credential storage path
credential_storage = file.Storage(self._credential_storage_path)
credentials = credential_storage.get()
# get credentails if necessary
if credentials is None or credentials.invalid:
credentials = tools.run_flow(flow, credential_storage, flags)
I read about service account access as a replacement of the regular OAuth2.0 authentication. Does any one know if that's the best way to go? any thoughts on how to do it better?
OAuth 2.0 requires user approval and is not the method to go for if you want to run your code/scripts automatically.
Service accounts are more suitable for this and are supported by the API (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/authentication#tools)
You create a service account + key in the developer console and use both to authenticate your application.

Google Maps API - Intranet

I have an internal network with only the web server connected to the internet. How can the server serve google maps pages to all the machines on this internal network? The way I understand the maps api is called from the client and hence either the maps server has to be on the internal network (Business License) or all machines should have internet access.
