Restrictions on use of the Google Places JavaScript API?

Question

I'm using JavaScript Places Library http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/places.html

However, I can't find how to set the API key. Is there a limit to the number of times I can use this Library?

Answer 1

The Google Maps JavaScript API V3 Places Library does not require an API key to implement. The library however is limited by requests per minute, per user. If a user exceeds this limit the request will return the status OVER_QUERY_LIMIT
