Understanding Google Sheet Add on

I am creating a Google sheet add on, and it required me to create a project at google cloud platform.
I want to offer this add on for free to the community and have a question around it.
Now when i submit this in google sheet add on gallery, and people start using my extension, will I need to pay any bill for this google cloud platform project OR when they install it they will be using their google cloud platform resources?
thank you for your help.

Does google cloud vision OCR support bar code reading?

I'm building an application which utilizes google cloud platform's OCR service. I'm still in progress with it and just wanted to know if this service also detects the bar codes and decode them?
Thanks.
No--requiring users to have a network connection just to read a barcode would be excessive, and too slow. Check out the Google Mobile Vision API instead, which runs on the device.

Usage Limitations for Google Maps Client Side API in a PhoneGap App

I have a PhoneGap application that has a Google Map view that drops pins for locations geo-encoded by Google Maps. I’m using the free client-side API since from my understanding each user that installs the app has his/her own usage limits (25k per day), that they will likely never exceed. The app is free, but I was paid to build the app.
If this goes to the app store am I breaking the law? I feel like a PhoneGap mobile application is a gray area since there is no server and no single IP that can abuse the service.
I'm not sure who you did pay.
Anyway, the Google Maps API TOS describes this at 9.1.2 Exceptions > Mobile Applications.
https://developers.google.com/maps/terms#section_9_1_2
(b) Mobile Applications.
(i) The rule in Section 9.1.1(a) (Free Access) does not apply if your Maps API Implementation is used in a mobile application that is sold for a fee through an online store and is downloadable to a mobile device that can access the online store.
And Google Maps API for work does not work on PhoneGap, because there is no domain.

Image Thumbnails from Google Drive API

I was wondering if the Google Drive API is going to generate multiple Thumbnail images for uploaded Photos to Google Drive in the near future. I am a developer of Cloud Photos (iOS App), and our integration with Dropbox and Facebook (coming soon) is powered by these thumbnail images generated for each photo uploaded to their service. I know we are very interested in integrating Google Drive, and generating thumbnails for uploaded Images would allow many developers with photo based apps to integrate with Google Drive.
This is not currently supported but something we could add in the future with a Picasa/Drive integration. There are no finite plans to implement this at the moment though.
Thanks for the feature request and for the feedback!

Can I use Google Maps driving directions in a paid iPhone App?

I understand that I can use MapKit within a paid iPhone app. (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7282633/google-maps-apis-in-iphone-paid-app)
How about if I have a feature within such an app that accesses Google Maps driving directions, using Google's web API? Can I still charge for my app?
The Developer Guide provides you with the info you need:
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/usage.html
It's limited to 25 000 map loads per day, as you are making an iPhone App that makes use of Google Maps per user and not through a server, you should be fine unless the user loads a map more then 25.000 a day, then he is being cut of. But this should not effect your commercial intensions of your app when using this API.
