QML and google maps api key

[davidesalvetti]

Hi all,

I'm having problems trying to set google maps api key for my project. Everything works well on debug mode but on release mode the map is not shown. I suppose this is because of the Api Key.
I have created my project on google console and enabled the google maps api key so I think the problem is on the code side.
This is my code:

import QtQuick 2.7
import QtQuick.Controls 1.4
import QtQuick.Window 2.0
import QtLocation 5.6
import QtPositioning 5.6

Rectangle {
    id: mainWindow
    width: 512
    height: 512
    visible: true

    ListModel{
        id:dummyModel
        ListElement {
            Latitude: 47.212047
            Longitude: -1.551647
            Label: "something"
            Orientation: 0
            Color:"transparent"
        }
   }

    Plugin {
        id: googleMaps
        name: "googlemaps" // "mapboxgl", "esri", ...
        // specify plugin parameters if necessary
         PluginParameter {
             name:"googlemaps.maps.apikey"
             value:"*******My Api Key*********"
         }

    }

    Map {
        id: myMap
        anchors.fill: parent
        plugin: googleMaps
        activeMapType: supportedMapTypes[1]

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

        MapItemView{
            id:dynamicMapObject
            model: dummyModel
            delegate: MapQuickItem {
                coordinate: QtPositioning.coordinate(Latitude,Longitude)
                sourceItem:  Text{
                    width: 100
                    height: 50
                    text: model.Label
                    rotation: model.Orientation
                    opacity: 0.6
                    color: model.Color
                }
            }
        }

        MapPolyline {
                line.width: 3
                line.color: 'green'
                path: [
                    { latitude: 59.92, longitude: 10.77 },
                    { latitude: 59.96, longitude: 10.78 },
                    { latitude: 59.99, longitude: 10.76 },
                    { latitude: 59.95, longitude: 10.74 }
                ]
        }

        MapCircle {
          //a static item (fixed real dimension) always at 100m east of the map center
          id:prova
          center: myMap.center.atDistanceAndAzimuth(100,90)
          opacity:0.8
          color:"red"
          radius:30

        }
    }

    Button{
        id:buttonMap
        text:"Click to add name"
        onClicked: {
            if(buttonMap.text == "Click to add name")
            {
                buttonMap.text = "Click to cancel name"
                myMap.activeMapType = myMap.supportedMapTypes[3]
            }
            else
            {
                buttonMap.text = "Click to add name"
                myMap.activeMapType = myMap.supportedMapTypes[1]
            }
        }
    }

    GroupBox{
           title:"map types"
           ComboBox{
               model:myMap.supportedMapTypes
               textRole:"description"
               onCurrentIndexChanged: myMap.activeMapType = myMap.supportedMapTypes[currentIndex]
           }
     }
}

I followed this topic (https://forum.qt.io/topic/66725/open-source-map-plug-in-for-qml/24).
Am I doing something wrong writing the plugin parameters? Am I missing something?

Is there a way to see if google api key has been setted well? Or something so that I can understand that the api key is wrong.

Any suggestion would be helpful.
Thanks in advance.

The problem was not the apikey. Here is the answer to the question https://forum.qt.io/topic/90126/problem-with-qml-and-google-maps-plugin/3
