Place an interactive map or Street View panorama on your web page with Maps Embed API. Use a simple HTTP request; no JavaScript required.

You can set the Maps Embed API URL as the src attribute of an iframe. When configuring a src property, the required q parameter can support a URL-escaped place name, address, plus code, or Place ID:

<iframe
  width="600"
  height="450"
  style="border:0"
  loading="lazy"
  allowfullscreen
  referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade"
  src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed/v1/place?key=API_KEY
    &q=Space+Needle,Seattle+WA">
</iframe>
