While there is no maximum number of requests per day, the following
usage limits are in place for the Roads API:
Requests per minute are limited, calculated across all
Roads API endpoints.
A maximum of 100 points per request.
Adjust quota
Quota limits define the maximum number of requests allowed for a specific API or service within a
given timeframe. When the number of requests in your project reaches the quota limit, your service
stops responding to requests.
To modify a quota value for your API, follow these steps:
In the Cloud console, navigate to Google Maps Platform > Quotas.
Select the API for which you want to modify the quota.
Identify the quota value that you want to change, and select it using the checkbox.
Click Edit, enter a new quota value, and click Submit request.
View quota increase requests
To view all quota increase requests, including past and pending requests:
In the Cloud console, navigate to Google Maps Platform > Quotas.
Select the API for which you want to view the quota increase request.
