In order for RevenueCat's servers to communicate with Google on your behalf you need to provide a set of service credentials. The process for configuring these credentials is a bit complex, but the added level of control improves security by only providing RevenueCat with the access we need.

1. Link to a Google Developer Project

Your Play Developer account needs to be linked to a Google Developer Project.

1a. Go to your Play Console settings

1b. Select API access

1c. Select Link to connect your Play account to a Google Developer Project

2. Create Service Account
