Setup Instructions

Stay organized with collections Save and categorize content based on your preferences.

If you are not using a generated library, you can download the Google API Client Library for Java and its dependencies in a zip file, or you can use Maven.

Also see the ProGuard setup instructions that are part of the Google HTTP Client Library for Java documentation.

Download the library with dependencies

Download the latest zip file, which you can find on the downloads page, and extract it on your computer. This zip file contains the client library class jar files and the associated source jar files for each artifact and its dependencies. You can find dependency graphs and licenses for the different libraries in the dependencies folder. For more details about the contents of the download, see the readme.html file.

Android

If you are developing for Android, and the Google API you want to use is included in the Google Play Services library, use the Google Play Services library for the best performance and experience.

If you are using the Google API Client Library for Java with Android, it is important to know which dependencies are compatible with Android, specifically which Android SDK level. Android applications require the following jar files, or newer compatible versions, from the libs folder:

Warning: For Android, you MUST place the .jar files in a directory named "libs" so that the APK packager can find them. Otherwise, you will get a NoClassDefFoundError error at runtime. Google App Engine

Google App Engine applications require the following jar files, or newer compatible versions, from the libs folder:

Servlet

Servlet applications require the following jar files, or newer compatible versions, from the libs folder:

Generic Java

General purpose Java applications require the following jar files, or newer compatible versions, from the libs folder:

Generated libraries for Google APIs

The repository of the generated libraries has instruction on how to use each version of the APIs.
