Why do I need Google Maps API Key?
Google Maps Platform has made API key mandatory for some regions and scenarios.
Note:
You need your own API key if you are on a Basic plan or "User-Supplied Key" plan.
Please refer to the Pricing for details on the plans.
For plans where 'Jivrus Managed key' are applicable, you do not need to supply a key
Without an API key, maps in this region will appear with a "for development purposes only" watermark in the darkened background (see the sample map below). Also, the quota limitations from Google are attached to the API key.
