How do I enable the Google Sheets API?

I'm trying to access a Google Sheet using the API. There is a button on this page named "Enable the Google Sheet API", but whenever I click it, it just loads forever. Is there another way to enable the API and download credentials.json? Is the button working?

How about the following flow? If that is not what you want, I apologize. 1. Open API console. 2. At Getting started, click "Explore and enable APIs". 3. At left side, click "Credentials". 4. Create credentials and OAuth client ID. Here, select "Other" as a test. Click Create. 5. Download JSON which is credentials.json. 6. At left side, click "Library". 7. At Search for APIs & services, input "sheets". And click "Google Sheets API". 8. Click "Enable". If API has already been enabled, please don't turn off. - Tanaike

I believe you can enable it from within the Google Console Dashboard, and [manage your credentials](Google Console Dashboard) too.

There should be a button on the dashboard at the top that says "Enable APIs and Services"
