How to create map IDs | Maps SDK for iOS

Paid feature: Features accessed by adding a map ID triggers a map load charged against the Dynamic Maps SKU for Android and iOS. See Google Maps Billing for more information.

A map ID is a unique identifier that represents Google Map styling and configuration settings that are stored in Google Cloud. You use map IDs to enable features or manage or style maps on your websites and in your applications. You can create map IDs for each platform you need--JavaScript, Android, iOS, or Static maps--in your Google Cloud console project on the Map Management page.

For more details and features that use map IDs, see Map ID overview.

To create or manage any map IDs in your project, you must use a principal with the appropriate role-level permissions, Editor or Owner, on the Cloud console IAM page for the project. For details, see IAM basic and predefined roles reference.

Create map IDs in the Cloud console following these steps:

1. Sign in to and open a Cloud console project with the required permissions.

2. In the Cloud console, go to the Maps Management page.

3. Click Create map ID.

4. On the Create new map ID page, do the following:

   1. For Name, give the map ID a name.
   2. Optional: For Description, describe what the map ID is used for.
   3. For Map type, select the platform on which you plan to use the map ID. If you choose JavaScript, also choose a Raster (the default) or Vector map type. For more information on vector maps, see Vector Maps.
   4. Click Save to show your new map ID.

If you are using cloud-based maps styling, you associate a map style with your map ID. For details, see Associate your style to a map ID.

Add your map ID through a <fragment> element in the activity's layout file, by using the MapView class, or programmatically using the GoogleMapOptions class.

For example, assume you created a map ID that is stored as a string value named map_id in res/values/strings.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<string name="map_id">MAP_ID</string>
</resources>

For maps added through a <fragment> element in the activity's layout file, all map fragments that should have the custom style must specify the map ID in the map:mapId attribute:

<fragment xmlns:map="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    map:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"
    …
    map:mapId="@string/map_id" />

You can also use the map:mapId attribute of the MapView class to specify a map ID:

<com.google.android.gms.maps.MapView
    xmlns:map="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    ....
    map:mapId="@string/map_id" />

To specify a map ID programmatically, pass it to a MapFragment instance using the GoogleMapOptions class:

 MapFragment mapFragment = MapFragment.newInstance(
     new GoogleMapOptions()
         .mapId(getResources().getString(R.string.map_id)));

 val mapFragment = MapFragment.newInstance(
     GoogleMapOptions()
         .mapId(resources.getString(R.string.map_id))
 )

In Android Studio, build and run your app as you normally would. Custom styles configured in the first step are applied to all maps with the specified map ID.

To instantiate a map using a map ID, do the following:

1. Create a GMSMapID with the map ID string from Cloud console.
2. Create a GMSMapView specifying the map ID you just created.

let camera = GMSCameraPosition(latitude: 47.0169, longitude: -122.336471, zoom: 12)
let mapID = GMSMapID(identifier: "MAP_ID")
let mapView = GMSMapView(frame: .zero, mapID: mapID, camera: camera)
self.view = mapView

GMSCameraPosition *camera = [GMSCameraPosition cameraWithLatitude:47.0169
                                                        longitude:-122.336471
                                                             zoom:12];
GMSMapID *mapID = [GMSMapID mapIDWithIdentifier:@"MAP_ID"];
GMSMapView *mapView = [GMSMapView mapWithFrame:CGRectZero mapID:mapID camera:camera];
self.view = mapView;

If you are using your own map ID, you can set your map ID in the Cloud console to have a new style at any time, and that style will be reflected on your map view automatically for you and users within about six hours.

If you want to see the changes immediately, you can close out and restart your app by exiting the app, forcing a quit of the app from the recently-used apps list, and then reopening it. The updated map will then be visible.

To create a map with a map ID in your application code:

1. If you are already customizing your map with embedded JSON code, remove the styles property from your MapOptions object; otherwise, skip this step.

2. Add a map ID to the map using the mapId property. For example:

map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'), {
center: {lat: -34.397, lng: 150.644},
zoom: 8,
mapId: 'MAP_ID'
});

To add a map ID to a new or existing map that uses one of our web-service APIs, append the map_id URL parameter and set it to your map ID. This example shows adding a map ID to a map using Maps Static API.

<img src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=Brooklyn+Bridge,New+York,NY&zoom=13&size=600x300&maptype=roadmap&markers=color:blue%7Clabel:S%7C40.702147,-74.015794&markers=color:green%7Clabel:G%7C40.711614,-74.012318&markers=color:red%7Clabel:C%7C40.718217,-73.998284&key=YOUR_API_KEY&map_id=MAP_ID&signature=YOUR_SIGNATURE" />

If you have a digital signature in your Maps Static URL before adding your map ID, you will need to

after adding your map ID. When generating your new URL signing secret, remember to remove your previous digital signature from the URL.
