I want to use google maps in JSP page, I tried to create it, but it gave me an error of Give API Key.
Google Maps is a Javascript API. Your issue is not JSP related.
Take a look at the tutorial and let us know if you get stuck. However, it sounds as though you need to apply for an API key, and use that correctly.
http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial.html
Google Maps can be used without API Key.A limited amount of data is provided in such a way(might be for testing).However if you want to use it properly then an API key is required for sure.
The Key is generated through Google Api...

I have always worked very effortlessly with Google Maps and their iFrame which displays the business on the webpage with their information, like this.
How is this possible with the javascript API? I have succesfully made a dark map with that, but I want to display the business also. Do I have to use another API for that?
I dont believe this is possible using only the google maps api. You could use the Google Places api https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/places#place_details.
Then you would need to create your own display for the information. I dont think there is any way to get this kind of functionality right out of the gate.
I am trying to use Angular google maps and I went through the quick setup supplied by angular google maps
.config(['$routeProvider','$locationProvider','uiGmapGoogleMapApiProvider,
function($routeProvider,$locationProvider,uiGmapGoogleMapApiProvider) {
// Other configurations
uiGmapGoogleMapApiProvider.configure({
key: ‘MY_GOOGLE_API_KEY’,
v: ‘3.17’,
libraries: 'weather,geometry,visualization'
});
}
]);
I setup an API key in Google API Console, but when I load the page i get an MissingKeyMapError.
Google Maps API error: MissingKeyMapError https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#missing-key-map-error
I have the Google Javascript API enabled in the API console. I am at a loss as to what I am doing wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I solved the issue. Turns out I was loading the Google Maps API v3 twice. I was loading it in the provider
uiGmapGoogleMapApi.then(function(maps) {});
and loading the script tag
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js"></script>
Once I removed the script tag, It worked!
Thanks for everyones help.
Make sure that you used a key parameter with a valid API key. Follow this link for the steps on how to get the proper API Key for your project.
Go to the Google API Console.
Create or select a project.
Click Continue to enable the API and any related services.
On the Credentials page, get a Browser key (and set the API Credentials). Note: If you have an existing Browser key, you may
use that key.
To prevent quota theft, secure your API key following these best practices.
(Optional) Enable billing. See Usage Limits
for more information.
But based from this thread, the problem was because of a stray script tag which was including the google maps api before using this library. You can also check this related SO question.
Hope this helps!
I have to use google map. I use below google API script
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=MY_API_KEY"></script>
And i got below Error
Google Maps API error: DeletedApiProjectMapError https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages#deleted-api-project-map-error
I created a New Project & New API key. But still this error came. Kindly help to solve this error.
Yo should go to https://console.developers.google.com and after create your API KEY, go to "Google Maps JavaScript API" and just ENABLE (by default is DISABLE)
You need to enable Maps JavaScript API for your website.
API link: https://console.developers.google.com/apis/library/maps-backend.googleapis.com?q=map
Based from this documentation, the DeletedApiProjectMapError means that your API project may have been deleted from the Google API Console. Please check the project for which you generated the API key that's included in JavaScript API loader.
Since you have already created a new API project and get a new key on the Google API Console, one workaround I found on this forum is to try deactivating all plugins to see if one of them is causing a conflict.
Check this related link. It states that:
I created new API keys in the first project for those maps again and deleted second project. The maps work partially now - without markers. It looks a little like manual blocking by someone on the Google maps side. Maybe someone is blocking access to Marker Manager .js file somewhere between my computer and a server where it is stored to ban my website.
Hope this helps!
I activate/enable more API Google Maps on https://console.developers.google.com and disappear this error.
You have deleted the project in google cloud platform of which you created an API.Regenrate Api by creating a new Project in google cloud platform.
There some answers saying the JavaScript API needs to be enabled as it is disabled by default. That seems to have changed. It was enabled by default in my account. It did not work anyway. I had to disable and reenable the API, then it worked.
Also it is to be noted that Google says it may take a couple of minutes upon creation until the API key works, that may also have been the thing.
I'm using google maps to geolocate users on my website. After that I would need to find different services near them (I would like to have ability for webpage to input search term in google maps with geolocaion) Is this possible? and if it is how could I do it?
You can use following example for searching places.
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=-33.8670522,151.1957362&radius=500&type=restaurant&name=cruise&key=YOUR-API-KEY-GOES-HERE
You have to create project in google console using below link
https://console.developers.google.com
Then create browser key and that key is which you have to use in above url which mention.
Last thing you need to enable Google Places API Web Service from https://console.developers.google.com
See below link for more detailed document.
https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/search#PlaceSearchRequests
Let me know if any issue you faced.
I am developing in JavaScript/HTML/CSS an app that uses Google Maps. I am getting the following alert dialog box:
"This page was unable to display a Google Maps element. The provided Google API key is invalid or this site is not authorized to use it. Error Code: InvalidKeyOrUnauthorizedURLMapError"
The app does actually display the map element; the alert is not a problem except it should not appear at all. The map displays properly.
I have gone in to the Google Developer's Console and, in the "Credentials" section, have "edited allowed referrers" to be mydomain.com/*
I have also gone in to the Google Developer's Console in the APIs section and enabled 11 Google Maps APIs.
After lots of referrer combinations, deleting and re-creating credentials i realized that i didn't enabled "Google Maps JavaScript API". What a shame. :)
For anyone who is having trouble to get google maps api work please check if the API enabled first.
After struggling a lot with this issue I've found 1 solution for me. It might help people who are searching for a proper and exact solution but not the comments, downvotes and links.
(Map was not displayed in my case.)
If suppose,the link of page where you are loading map is
http://example.com/abc/def/ghi/kpn.php
then give thesame(exactly the same) under Edit allowed references
If you try loading the same page using:
www.example.com/abc/def/ghi/kpn.php
or
http://www.example.com/abc/def/ghi/kpn.php
then your page is loaded but not your map, and this alert is generated.
CONCLUSION
Use the same path(Url address) at these 2 places.
While loading the page which has map.
Under Edit allowed references.
After following this I've got rid from this alert.
First you need to go to https://console.developers.google.com/ and select APIs.
In Google Maps APIs select Google Maps JavaScript API and make sure you enable API for Google Maps JavaScript.
Secondly, you need to create an API key:
Go to Credentials
Create new key and select Browser Key
No need to specify any referrers
So you should see Any referrer allowed after you save.
After a lot of trial and error this worked for me (by Eduardo. Thanks !)
The URL that needs to be authorized is the one in the Referrer header for the requests the browser sends to Google to load the API.
Under Browser Credentials > REFERERS
Add these
.example.org/
www.example.org/*
http://www.example.org
http://example.org
geocodezip provided the info i needed. I was indeed loading the googlemaps library twice: once in my index.html file and once in an iFrame. I changed my code so that the iFrame did not load the googlemaps library but, instead, used the parent. Thanks geocodezip!
Go to APIs menu and find "Google Maps JavaScript API" after you open it just press "Enable API"
I was able to get this to work by deleting all my referrers and allowing all. Apparently there is a bug in the developer console that is causing problems. Some people say that they can get referrers to work by deleting all then adding all back in at once instead of line by line:
https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/maps/mSVyDazRMQo
Previous things I tried:
Regenerating Key
Setting all maps apis to enabled
Hard coding absolute paths of referrers
A side note, when I didn't include my api_key everything worked fined, though I'm sure they will eventually turn you off if you don't use your api_key.
What worked for me was to use Firebug in order to find the exact URL that made the request to the Google Maps API. As stated in Google Maps API documentation on troubleshooting authorization, "How to find the correct URL" part:
The URL that needs to be authorized is the one in the Referrer header
for the requests the browser sends to Google to load the API.
In my case, lets suppose I have a website example.com. In the developer console, under Google Maps API key, I've added many combinations of referrer such as example.com/*, *.example.com/*, example.com, but still the InvalidKeyOrUnauthorizedURLMapError persisted.
My solution, as I've mentioned, to use Firebug: open example.com and look for what was the referrer making request to https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?..., and it was http://example.com, and that is it. I've added http://example.com/* to the enabled URLs in the Developers Console under my respective API key and now everything works fine.
It is important to know where to look for on Firebug: it is the Net tab. Just click on the request to maps.googleapis ... and look for the Referer
I got it to work by exchanging the keys with my own special created keys AND reading this webpage a few times very carefully. My advice is to add or exchange your Google API Keys at https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials before embarking in very complicated scripting.
Insert your own API keys in the very first line of the Google Map javascript:
If you have been setup all configuration like api key etc, and you still got the error,
please enable all your mandatory APIs regarding to google maps.
Like:-
Google Maps Embed API
Google Maps Geocoding API
Google Maps Geolocation API
Google Maps JavaScript API
