Yes, such things don't have to be shared (can be dangerous - direct access to your account on the wider public)!

Find out your application key there and put it on the APP_KEY var initialization into the example.
Hope now all will be Ok.

Is it supposed to be like that or something else?
Sorry, I am unfamiliar with these new concepts. Thanks for your responses.
