Announcement: New basemap styling is coming soon to Google Maps Platform. This update to map styling includes a new default color palette, modernized pins, and improvements to map experiences and usability. All map styles will be automatically updated in March 2025. For more information on availability and how to opt in earlier, see New map style for Google Maps Platform.

Settings (beta)

Settings class

google.maps.Settings class

Settings which control the behavior of the Maps JavaScript API as a whole.

Access by calling const {Settings} = await google.maps.importLibrary("core"). See Libraries in the Maps JavaScript API.

Static Methods
`getInstance`	Notice: Available only in the v=beta channel. `getInstance()` Parameters: None Return Value: `Settings` Returns the singleton instance of `google.maps.Settings`.

Properties
`experienceIds`	Notice: Available only in the v=beta channel. Type: `Iterable<string>` A collection of unique experience IDs to which to attribute Maps JS API calls. The returned value is a copy of the internal value that is stored in the `Settings` class singleton instance. Operations on `google.maps.Settings.getInstance().experienceIds` will therefore only modify the copy and not the internal value. To update the internal value, set the property equal to the new value on the singleton instance (ex: `google.maps.Settings.getInstance().experienceIds = [experienceId];`).
