Enable google Cloud Resource Manager API by python client API

Question

if the api is not enabled, usually error will be like

HttpError: <HttpError 403 when requesting https://cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/v1/projects?alt=json returned "Cloud Resource Manager API has not been used in project 684373208471 before or it is disabled. Enable it by visiting https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/overview?project=xxxxxxxxxx then retry. If you enabled this API recently, wait a few minutes for the action to propagate to our systems and retry.". Details: "[{'@type': 'type.googleapis.com/google.rpc.Help', 'links': [{'description': 'Google developers console API activation', 'url': 'https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com/overview?project=xxxxxxxxx'}]}, {'@type': 'type.googleapis.com/google.rpc.ErrorInfo', 'reason': 'SERVICE_DISABLED', 'domain': 'googleapis.com', 'metadata': {'consumer': 'projects/xxxxxxxxxxx', 'service': 'cloudresourcemanager.googleapis.com'}}]">

Does google provide API for enabling some api?

Google Cloud provides an API to enable APIs. This is called Service Usage API.

Service Usage REST API

Service Usage Client Libraries

Example code that I wrote to display a list of enabled APIs in Python:

from googleapiclient import discovery
from oauth2client.client import GoogleCredentials

credentials = GoogleCredentials.get_application_default()

project = 'projects/myproject'

service = discovery.build('serviceusage', 'v1', credentials=credentials)
request = service.services().list(parent=project)

response = ''

try:
    response = request.execute()
except Exception as e:
    print(e)
    exit(1)

# FIX - This code does not process the nextPageToken
# next = response.get('nextPageToken')

services = response.get('services')

for index in range(len(services)):
    item = services[index]

    name = item['config']['name']
    state = item['state']

    print("%-50s %s" % (name, state))

The output of this code looks similar to this (truncated for this answer):
