Error when adding Android Push Notifications "Google server API key"

I'm trying to set up Android push notifications in a Unity game. I've followed many tutorials, but I'm stuck.

If I go here: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials

I can see under API Keys an item called "Android key (auto created by Firebase)" and a Key value. I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to copy this and go to PlayFab > My Project > Title Settings > Push Notifications, click Settings under Android, and paste it in the "Google server API key" field.

Unfortunately I get the error "Invalid parameter: Attributes Reason: Platform credentials are invalid"

I ran across this post: Setup Push Notification on Playfab server for Android - Playfab Community

but the link is dead and the only thing Google brings up with those keywords is that post.

What am I doing wrong?

Please follow Push notifications for Android to set the Android Push Notifications. And according to the Setting page of Android Push Notifications, you should input a Server API Key. You could find it in Firebase -> Project settings -> Cloud Messaging -> Server key.

Oh man. I have been working at this for so long. Your directions to the Server Key in the Firebase Console is exactly what I needed.

FYI, I have been trying to follow the instructions in the link you provided, but now I see they are incorrect. In the instructions, it says Firebase -> Project settings -> General -> Web API Key. That is not the key I needed. For future seekers, use what Gosen said above.
