Application restrictions defines which websites, IP addresses, or apps can use the API key. If you want to prevent unauthorized access outside of Zoho Forms, you should configure these restrictions accordingly.
API restrictions determine which APIs can be accessed using the API key.If you want to limit access to specific APIs, you must configure these settings.
To configure the restrictions:
Add the domains based on your region. As you have added forms.zoho.com above for the US region, you can add forms.zoho.eu for the EU region, forms.zoho.in for the India region, and other domains as applicable. Custom domains, such as forms.zylker.com, can also be added if needed, as shown above.
For auto-fill address to work in the Web app, only Places API and Maps Javascript API are required. Hence, we may limit the API usage to the same.
