Maps Datasets API client libraries

This page shows how to get started with the client libraries for Maps Datasets API.

Read more about the client libraries in Client Libraries Explained.

Install the client library

Node.jsPython

For more information, see Setting Up a Node.js Development Environment.

npm install @googlemaps/maps-platform-datasets

For more information, see Setting Up a Python Development Environment.

pip install --upgrade google-maps-mapsplatformdatasets

Set up authentication

When you use client libraries, you use Application Default Credentials (ADC) to authenticate. For information about setting up ADC, see Provide credentials for Application Default Credentials. For information about using ADC with client libraries, see Authenticate using client libraries.

Use the client library

Node.jsPython

/**

// Imports the Mapsplatformdatasets library
const {MapsPlatformDatasetsClient} = require('@googlemaps/maps-platform-datasets').v1;

// Instantiates a client
const mapsplatformdatasetsClient = new MapsPlatformDatasetsClient();

  // Construct request

  // Run request
  const response = await mapsplatformdatasetsClient.createDataset(request);

from google.maps import mapsplatformdatasets_v1


def sample_create_dataset():
    # Create a client
    client = mapsplatformdatasets_v1.MapsPlatformDatasetsClient()

    # Initialize request argument(s)
    request = mapsplatformdatasets_v1.CreateDatasetRequest(
        parent="parent_value",
    )

    # Make the request
    response = client.create_dataset(request=request)

    # Handle the response
    print(response)
