The Maps Embed API overview

Place an interactive map or Street View panorama on your web page with Maps Embed API. Use a simple HTTP request; no JavaScript required.

Note: Street View imagery comes from two sources: Google (non-public developer-controlled imagery), and the public (UGC, or public user generated content). There is presently no way to use only one content type or the other. Learn more about our Street view imagery privacy policy.

You can set the Maps Embed API URL as the src attribute of an iframe:

<iframe
  width="600"
  height="450"
  style="border:0"
  loading="lazy"
  allowfullscreen
  referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade"
  src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed/v1/place?key=API_KEY
    &q=Space+Needle,Seattle+WA">
</iframe>
