Where to manage your Client ID in the Google Cloud Console
The Premium Plan Client ID management functionality is migrating from the Support Portal to the
Cloud Console on the Maps' Credentials
page, under the Service Accounts section.
Note: The Google Maps Platform Premium Plan is no longer available for sign up or new customers.
This summary of changes is for customers who are renewing a previous
Maps API for Business or Maps APIs for Work license with the
new Google Maps Platform Premium Plan, which became available in January 2016.
For more information about the Premium Plan,
see Premium Plan Overview.
Purchasing
| Scaled access to APIs
|
You now have access to our suite of services
with a single usage quota. |
| Maps APIs Credits
|
Base prices include a common pool of Maps APIs Credits; all requests to APIs consume credits
from this pool.
|
Usage model
| Usage rates
|
Requests to Maps APIs consume Maps APIs Credits;
usage rates vary by API. |
| QPD
|
The free daily QPD limit for web service requests is a shared
100,000 requests, instead of separate limits for each API.
|
| QPS
|
QPS has increased from 10 QPS to 50 QPS for all web service
APIs, including the Places API. Learn how to
optimize web service usage
or request a QPS increase.
|
| Client-side requests
|
Client-side requests are now charged the same usage rate as web service requests.
|
| Map loads
|
Page views for the Maps JavaScript API under the previous
Maps APIs for Work and Maps API for Business offerings has been
replaced by map loads. Map loads
consume Maps APIs Credits only when a map is actually instantiated on a page. |
| Places API
|
Both client-side and server-side requests for the Places API, including Place
Autocomplete, consume Maps APIs Credits.
|
Reporting
Application development
| Provisioning
|
All Google Maps Platform will be automatically provisioned with an API project in
the Cloud Console. You'll receive both a
project ID and a client ID. |
| API keys |
You can now use an API key with any Maps API. Or, you can choose to use a client ID with any
Maps API, except the Places API, Roads API, Geolocation API,
and Mobile SDKs. |
| Mobile SDKs
|
You no longer need to have the Google Maps Mobile SDK for Work enabled on your
Google Cloud Console project to access premium mobile features. You can now access these features
in the Maps SDK for Android and the Maps SDK for iOS. |
| Dynamic library for Android
|
With the Maps SDK for Android, you can now also use the dynamic library for Android
instead of only the static library.
|
Support
| Support access
|
Google Maps Platform Premium Plan includes the same 24-hour
technical support you have now. |
| Service-level agreement
|
Google Maps Platform Premium Plan is backed by the same
SLA you have now. |
