Direct link to get google custom search API key?

I have an API key that I use for Google custom search queries in the json search API, which is here:

https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&rsz=8&q=

I need to send clients to a URL where anyone can get a custom API key for their domains. However, I do not remember the URL that I used to get the API key.

Does anyone know the most direct url to send them to get the key?

This one looks perfect: http://code.google.com/apis/loader/signup.html

But I'm not sure if this is the right place for Google Custom Search, as it belongs to the “Google Loader” that I am not familiar with.

You can get the API key by visiting https://code.google.com/apis/console and clicking "Access API". Then you will need to enable the custom search API on the Services tab.

Wilfred Street began me, but I did not see the same as Wilfred. I needed to click the “Google API” (which links here: https://console.developers.google.com/apis ), then “Credentials”.

The Custom Search API is also available on the Google API screen if you need more information.
