This article will guide you through how to create and access your Google Maps API key and enter it into Gingr to enable features like Address Look-Up and Owner Map.

Reference:  On July 16, 2018, Google implemented a new pay-as-you-go pricing plan that went into effect for Maps, Routes, and Places. This caused a sharp increase in cost for Gingr to include this offer for free. Because of this, we have removed the address look-up feature in Gingr as an included feature. However, we've created a setting for an API entry so that you can set-up your own Google Maps account that connects with Gingr for Address Look-Up. This article will show you how to access that API key from Google and enter that API key into Gingr.
