Model Registration

All Provider models must be registered with Google before they will work with Fast Pair. After registration, Google will distribute a Model ID and Anti-Spoofing Public/Private Key Pair. The information provided during registration is used in the pairing suggestion presented to the user, and may be used in other UX.

How to Register a Model ID

1. Create a Google Cloud (GC) project if one does not exist.
   1. Projects are initially inactive and will be activated within a few days of creation.
      1. Your project will show an icon at the top of the page in the Nearby console indicating whether it is active or not.
