Google notifies users about mandatory migration of all reCAPTCHA services to Cloud platform. Service will remain free with a usage limit.
Google is informing users that its reCAPTCHA service will migrate to Google Cloud by the end of the year.
An email states that all existing reCAPTCHA keys must be moved to Google Cloud projects.
WordPress developer Jeff Starr shared a screenshot of the email that was sent out.
Why Is Google Doing This?
Google says this move aims to bring all reCAPTCHA customers under one set of terms and pricing.
Additionally, Google wants to give developers access to new security features.
After the migration, you can immediately use dashboards in Google Cloud for analytics, monitoring, logging, and auditing.
Phased Rollout
The transition will occur in stages throughout the year.
You can expect to receive periodic email updates notifying you when existing keys are eligible for migration.
At that time, Google will automatically create a corresponding Google Cloud project and link the keys.
To avoid interruptions, Google recommends taking action early. You can proactively migrate keys from reCAPTCHA Classic to the Google Cloud environment by following the company’s guidelines.
