Googlemaps satellite view is not working

Hi,

I'm new to QML so I'm pretty sure that there is an error in my code. I have built and installed the googlemaps plugin and now I'm working on the minimal_map example, but I can't display the satellite view. The plugin is working right because using the mapviewer example I can see the satellite view.

here is my code:

import QtQuick 2.0
import QtQuick.Window 2.0
import QtLocation 5.6
import QtPositioning 5.6

Window {
    property variant map
    width: 512
    height: 512
    visible: true

    Plugin {
        id: googleMaps
        name: "googlemaps" // "mapboxgl", "esri", ...
        // specify plugin parameters if necessary
        // PluginParameter {
        //     name:
        //     value:
        // }
        
    }

    Map {
        id: maps
        anchors.fill: parent
        activeMapType: MapType.SatelliteMapDay
        plugin: googleMaps

        center: QtPositioning.coordinate(59.91, 10.75) // Oslo
        zoomLevel: 14
    }
}

Can anyone give me any hint?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I found it myself:

   Plugin {
        id: googleMaps
        name: "googlemaps" // "mapboxgl", "esri", ...
        // specify plugin parameters if necessary
        // PluginParameter {
        //     name:
        //     value:
        // }

    }

    Map {
        id: maps
        anchors.fill: parent
        plugin: googleMaps
        activeMapType: supportedMapTypes[1]   //you should use this, instead of MapType.SatelliteMapDay

        center: QtPositioning.coordinate(59.91, 10.75) // Oslo
        zoomLevel: 14   
    }
