Google Maps API

The Google Maps add-on requires a Google Maps API key. Below are the steps to obtain one. 

You'll first want to login/create an account on the Google Cloud Platform here: https://console.cloud.google.com/google/maps-apis/overview

Once the account is created, you will search for the "Maps Javascript API" and enable that on your account.

Once enabled, you will navigate to the "Credentials" tab in the console window and setup (or edit) credentials which will then produce an API key for use. You'll then copy that API key and place it in Google Maps options area in Sugar Calendar settings referenced above.
