ApiNotActivatedMapError for simple html page using google-places-api

Roy picture Roy · Feb 29, 2016 · Viewed 168.6k times · Source

I'm trying to create a simple html page (I'd later like to add an autocomplete input there) that include google-places-api. I have an api-key (which is enabled) but I still get an error message.

Here is my html-

<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=MY_KEY&libraries=places"></script>
    <title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>

but I get this error message- enter image description here

and in the console I get - Google Maps API error: Google Maps API error: ApiNotActivatedMapError

I can't understand what the problem is.. Appreciate anybody's help

To enable Api do this

  1. Go to API Manager
  2. Click on Overview
  3. Search for Google Maps JavaScript API(Under Google Maps APIs). Click on that
  4. You will find Enable button there. Click to enable API.

OR You can try this url: Maps JavaScript API

Hope this will solve the problem of enabling API.
