Google Maps

RapidMart uses Google for address search (“Search street, area or building”), turning a pin into an address, and better place search on the admin maps. The maps themselves (zone editor, store pin) need no key.

  1. Google Cloud console → create or pick a project → set up billing (Google’s monthly free credit covers small marketplaces).
  2. APIs & Services → Library → enable Places API and Geocoding API.
  3. APIs & Services → Credentials → Create credentials → API key.
  4. Restrict it: Application restrictions → IP addresses → your server’s IP; API restrictions → Places API and Geocoding API.

Admin → Settings → Integrations → Google Maps → API key → Save.

The customer app shows Google maps too, with its own key (Maps SDK for Android and iOS) — see Google Maps in the app.
