DEPRECATED: Legacy cloud styling is deprecated and is slated for retirement starting on or after March 18, 2025. At that point, your legacy map styles will automatically update. Google recommends you update to the new cloud-based maps styling before March 2025. For more information about the deprecation, see Deprecations. To update your legacy styles, see Update a map style to the latest version.

A map ID is a unique identifier that's used to represent a single instance of a Google Map. 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.
If you are using cloud-based maps styling with an existing map that
is customized with the
style parameter,
make sure to remove them to avoid potential conflict with future features.
To add a map ID to a new or existing map that uses one of our
web 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.
