Our plugin, RT SalesMap, requires four Google APIs to fully work. Effective from July 16, 2018, Google revised the API pricing plan which we mentioned on one of our news pages.

As Google bills for every request made to Google’s Maps APIs. We want to encourage our users to put limits on their APIs so they have control over the number of maximum calls that can be made per day to each of the enabled APIs. We will be introducing a feature to control the limit within CRM in one of our upcoming releases. 

You can find a brief description along with the pricing details:

Geocoding API:
It converts your addresses and geographic coordinates into latitudes and longitudes so they can be viewed and pinned on the map. It’s pricing structure is:

Maps Javascript API:
This API is used to load the actual map within your Sugar or Suite instance. It is priced as:

Places API:
Places API gets you detailed information about 100 million places on Google Maps. It is priced per call as follows:

Directions API:
This API gets you the directions between multiple locations and helps draw routes.

Once RT SalesMap Mobile is released, users will be required to enable the following two APIs to have the map-view on their Mobile Phones:

• Maps SDK for Android 
• Maps SDK for iOS 

These APIs are free of cost, you can see the pricing plan for both below:

Setting Quota on these APIs:
You can limit your quota for each API to have a limited number of calls instead of unlimited to retain the desired budget. It will be under the APIs details Quota tab and will look like following (after setting limit):
