Where to get Maps API (for Google Maps)?
https://documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Setting_up_Location_integration - This instruction is out of date. Can you update it? The Google Maps site no longer has that button, there is completely different information now.
eminem08 Hi You need to create account on the Google Map API account with Google. the steps are same.
You need to enable the Google map API key for : Places API Geocoding API Geolocation API Maps Embed API Maps JavaScript API Maps Static API And API must be used for your current site.
Google Map Console : https://console.cloud.google.com/google/maps-apis/start?pli=1
Ninja When I went there, I was shown a pop-up window with information that I must create an "Cloud Billing account" - https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/manage-billing-account
Does this mean that it is not free and you have to pay a monthly fee to use Google Maps on the site? Did I get it right?
eminem08 Hi Google Map is not Fully free. Only limited bandwidth free https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/maps/
Ninja Can you update the documentation here - https://documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Setting_up_Location_integration and post new screenshots for the documentation?
eminem08 Hi Thanks for feedback, i will share it with team to update it soon with some more details.
This instruction helped me more to understand what to do, add it to the Wiki - https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/get-api-key
eminem08 Hi These are official Google map instructions that you can use of any part not only JomSocial. On the JomSocial we linked the Google map documentation is already linked.
