I've got a Flex application that uses the Google Maps component. Is it possible to configure the component to use Google Maps API v3 without API Key? If not, is there a workaround to use the JavaScript API? Or a timeline for providing swc using Google Maps API v3?
I currently perform client-side geocoding using the Google Maps API v3 webservice, but I need to also display maps and allow user to interact with them.
Firstly, realize that the Javascript API and the Flash API are different API's.
I imagine that they will porting the no API key feature to the Flash API soon.
However, I have no used the Flash API in a while and Google may be moving away from maintaining it. It doubt that they will though. They have a lot invested in the Flash API.

How should I integrate analytics into a PWA webapp ? if I add analytics from google analytics into webapp and publish it in a server, then later, if I want to publish it on Google Play Store, how should I track the use?
here's the scenario:
I'm deploying the PWA from a subdomain.
then I'm publishing the PWA from Google Play Store as a TWA.
My concerns:
Should I use the google analytics snippet for web to track the subdomain-based pwa and firebase analytics for my Google Play Store app?
Or,
Can I use a single method to track both versions at the same time?
I have found this faq of chrome developer about use of google analytics
The CPA library follows the basic usage pattern of Google Analytics and will feel familiar to existing users of Google Analytics. However, unlike the web-centric official Google Analytics JavaScript libraries, the CPA library uses an "app-centric" model that is better suited for Packaged Apps. Among other features, the library provides methods for specific types of hits, such as "event" and "appView", and it can be used in both Closure-based and traditional JavaScript projects.
I am using Vuejs as frontend with pwa template, not sure if it is applicable for my use case. Any suggestion or direction would be much appreciated.
I am using THIS - Web + App configuration.
Using this you can track both at the same time.
You can configure it easily in firebase - see HERE for more
Google map javascript api: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/places-autocomplete
Google places api: https://developers.google.com/places/documentation/autocomplete
They both offer seemingly the same feature, autocomplete.
Since, I am developing an webapp, I can use both, and I can't see much difference.
What are the significant differences between the two?
-- edit
There is also google maps embeded api (webservice).
How is it conceptually differ or fit in with the above two?
One is part of the javascript API, the other is a web service, intended for use server side
Recently i really was amazed by openstreet maps, and it's very possibilities to manipulate data, aswell the free of charge about many prescious things - like geocoding and the maps itself.
But i wish to still having a backup behind with google maps.
Is it possible to having both of them in Flex, and how ?
( or at least where i can look for similar project of "unification" )
It appears that OpenStreet Maps has a REST API. You can access that API in a Flex application using the HTTPService; assuming a proper crossdomain.xml file is in place.
If not; you'll have to use a proxy between your Flex app and the REST API.
MapQuest has an Open Flash API that uses OpenStreetMap data. They also offer an Open Flash Mobile API that can be used with Flash Builder to build apps for the iPhone, Android, and BlackBerry tablet with the new tools in Flex 4.5+.
Feel free to check out the documentation on the MapQuest Developer Network!
I am currently working on a project which needs an editor for google map so that users can draw polygons , lines , add markers , images, etc. Directly working with google map api is pain in the ... i am not satisfied and running out of time
Did you know any good apis to work with? I found some like Google Maps API For .Net, but it has several known bugs. Is there any javascript+jquery , flash , flex , or .net api to work with?
Read the documentation for the drawing library included in version 3.7 of the maps API. Google is now providing this API as an add on library
I am developing smart device application. I want to know whether we need to implement the google map by using html form or window form? Can we add both the static map and dynamic google map in smart device mobile application? Can u provide me a hyperlink from which i will get step by step description of how to implement the google map in smart device application?
You can use either Google Static Maps API or Google Maps API version 3, which is optimized to be able to be used in mobile devices. If you want interactivity, use the Maps API v3. When you just want to show a static map, use the static api.

From there you can get to the developer's guide, tutorial, and api reference.
