Authenticating with client_id

Open SpicerCode opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

I wanted to use this with my Google Maps for Work account, but I don't see support for using a client_id for authentication.

Thanks for raising this. I agree this would definitely be a good thing to add. Since I don't particularly want to pay a license to get a client ID, I am not really in a position to work on this.

PRs welcome! I'd be very happy to guide someone through implementing this. Since the underlying library that we use to load the Google Maps API supports client IDs, I'd imagine adding this would be straightforward.

I have submitted a request for a test key from Google maps.

Google Maps have decided not to give me a test client ID, so it's unlikely I will be able to develop this in the near future. If anybody does have credentials, PRs welcome!
