Google Maps API keys with Google Dart - google-maps

I'm relatively new to this so I apologise if this is worded incorrectly. I'm creating a web application with Google Maps using Dart and have obtained a Google API key, Client ID and Client secret but I am not sure how to link it to my Dart project. For example there is no where in the project itself with this information and I am not sure where it should be?

You can follow the steps describe at Getting Started. Once your API key retrieved you only have to add the following script (see Loading the Google Maps API) to your page to start using the API :
<script type="text/javascript"
src="//maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=API_KEY&sensor=SET_TO_TRUE_OR_FALSE">
</script>
You can look at this simple example that shows how to use Google Maps with Dart.

a commercial API key did not work: This page can't load google maps correctly

I used a new key and got:
"This page can't load google maps correctly"
What does it really mean?
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=MY_API_KEY&libraries=places" async defer"></script>
This is a key from a commercial account.
For anyone who runs into this "This page can't load google maps correctly" error and has added the Places library in the JavaScript API script, i.e.:
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=KEY&libraries=places"></script>
You must enable the Places API. It's not enough to enable the JavaScript API only. Refer to Google's documentation:
Before using the Places library in the Maps JavaScript API, first
ensure that the Places API is enabled in the Google Cloud Platform
Console, in the same project you set up for the Maps JavaScript API.
Hope this helps.

When do you need a Google Maps API Key?

Following Google's Example - Street View Service I was able to make a very simple map to get myself started. I haven't signed up for an API Key though.
Tutorials I've read such as Tutsplus - Getting creative with the Google Maps API says it should be the first step.
That I should have a line:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=YOUR_API_KEY_GOES_HERE&sensor=true"></script>
But at least in this initial example from Google it works just fine with:
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?v=3.exp"></script>
I read:
Google Map API Issue. Using without API key
Google Map needs an API or not?
But they don't really answer my more generalized question. When is it needed that I signup for the API Key? What limitations do I face by not signing up and just using the ..js?v=3.exp instead? Is there some other thing I should be using... one of those two SO questions mentions ...maps/api/js?sensor=false for example?
You don't need an API key but it allows you to monitor your application. Also you'll need an API key if you want to take a license.

Deprecation of V2

I have an application calling the v2 api without key using:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2&key="></script>
This has stopped working over the past couple of days. Console is showing only one error:
Control is no longer supported in the Google Maps Javascript API v2...
However, whichever way I try and call the v3 API, I get an error :
"Google has disabled use of the Maps API for this application. The provided key is not a valid Google API Key, or it is not authorized for the Google Maps Javascript API v3 on this site"
I have checked, and re-connected a valid bank card to the account (although the outstanding balance was $0.00) This payment appears not to have been registered.
Any leaders on where to go next?
Don't use the Google Maps Javascript API v2, it is deprecated and has been turned off, replaced with a simple wrapper for the Google Maps Javascript API v3
From the error you report in the console, the functionality you are attempting to use is not available in the wrapper.
Port your code to v3 ASAP.
See https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/v2/v2tov3#overview
You need to register a new API key.
Loading the Google Maps API page states to use this code with a new API key placed into the code at API_KEY and you will probably need to set your sensor to FALSE, also you may need to place the new API key into your application settings page.
<script type="text/javascript"
src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=API_KEY&sensor=FALSE">
</script>

Google Maps API for Business can be used for localhost URL?

I'm working on a new project using geocoding, but now im testing my website locally. How can I register a local URL (ex: [http://localhost/myWebApp])? Or will I see the changes only if my web is on a webhosting service?
By using the javascript V3 api, you can just enter the api key in the script declaration. Example:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=enteryourapikeyhere&sensor=false"></script>
You can follow the required steps right here to implement it in your page:

google map api key not working, need a defferent key

sorry, I know this question might be too common, but I really couldn't figure out why the google map on my site is not working, I did following what the documentation told me to do, I sign up a google map api key, and I implement the follwoing code:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://maps.google.com/maps? file=api&v=2&sensor=false&key=mykey">
</script>
I did replace mykey with the google map key for the url I entered during sign up, but when I go to my website, there still show me a alert saying that the site need a different google map api key, I wonder this could be other reasons but I can't think any, anyone could help me with that, any help will be greatly appreciated!
use google maps v3, you only need a key for maps v2:
How does the Google Maps APIs key system work?
Note: Google Maps API keys are only required when using the JavaScript Maps API V2 and the Maps API for Flash.
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/faq.html#keysystem
Where did you sign up for your key? The Maps API now uses keys that are generated through the API console: https://code.google.com/apis/console so you can go there and generate a new key.
