To set up Google reCAPTCHA, you need to register your website on the Google reCAPTCHA platform to obtain a specific API key pair (Site Key and Secret Key).

Step 1: Register Your Site
  1. Access Console: Go to theGoogle reCAPTCHA Admin Console.

  2. Sign In: Log in using your Google account.

  3. Add New Site: Click the "+" button (Create) to register a new site.

  4. Label: Enter a descriptive name for your site (e.g., "iDesk Support") to identify it later.

Step 2: Choose reCAPTCHA Type

Select the version that matches your system requirements:

  • reCAPTCHA v2 ("I'm not a robot" Checkbox): Requires users to click a checkbox.

  • reCAPTCHA v2 (Invisible badge): Validates requests in the background and only shows a challenge if traffic is suspicious.

  • reCAPTCHA v3: Fully invisible; it assigns a score to user behavior without any interaction.

Step 3: Configure Domains and Owners
  1. Domains: Add your website's domain name (e.g., example.com). You do not need to list subdomains separately as they are automatically included.

  2. Owners: Your email is added by default, but you can add additional owners if needed.

  3. Terms: Accept the reCAPTCHA Terms of Service.

  4. Submit: Click Submit or Register.

Step 4: Get and Use Your Keys

Once submitted, Google will display two keys:

  • Site Key: Used in the frontend code of your website.

  • Secret Key: Used for communication between your backend and Google to verify responses.
