I added this to the closed "parent" issue (before I spotted that this child issue exists, confirming my assertion that this is not resolved)

I'm getting this same issue with a current D8 install (8.9.13) and current version @font-your-face (8.x-3.6). I am using a fresh Google Web Fonts Developer API which is confirmed enabled. This is supposed to be resolved and working via the merged patch in @font-your-face, but I'm getting the following error:

The list of Google Fonts could not be fetched. Verify that your server can connect to the Google servers (https://www.googleapis.com). Error: Client error: `GET https://www.googleapis.com/webfonts/v1/webfonts?key={my Google API Key here}` resulted in a `403 Forbidden` response: { "error": { "code": 403, "message": "Requests from referer \u003cempty\u003e are blocked.", "errors": [ (truncated...)

The log shows:

TypeError: Argument 1 passed to _google_fonts_api_convert_api_results() must be of the type array, bool given, called in /home/mywebsite.com/modules/fontyourface/modules/google_fonts_api/google_fonts_api.module on line 116 in _google_fonts_api_convert_api_results() (line 183 of /home/mywebsite.com/modules/fontyourface/modules/google_fonts_api/google_fonts_api.module)

I am entering the Google API into the module's config page and the top error appears as soon as that API is saved ("save configuration" button).
