Documentation

If you have a question about the Google Maps Platform, first check our documentation:

Troubleshooting

If you run into an issue with the Google Maps Platform, you can often resolve it yourself quickly using our Premium Plan Troubleshooter. If the troubleshooter doesn't provide a solution, you'll see a link to the Google Cloud Support Portal, where you can contact support.

Contacting support

New! You can now contact support by filing a case in the Google Maps Platform support page in the Google Cloud Platform Console, or by calling the Google Cloud Support hotline.

Creating a support case

All Premium Plan customers can contact support by filing a case in the Maps Support page in the Google Cloud Platform Console.
  1. Visit the Google Maps Platform support page in the Google Cloud Platform Console.
  2. Select the project related to your question, in the top dropdown bar of the Google Cloud Platform Console. You need to be an Owner or Editor on the project to file a support case.
  3. Fill out the fields in detail on the Create a new support case section. It may take a minute to create your case.

Frequently asked questions

Who can file cases in the Google Cloud Platform Console?
Project owners and editors can file cases for a given project.
Will the cases created in the Console appear in the Google Cloud Support Portal?
Cases created in the Google Cloud Platform Console will not show up in the "Recent cases" list available in the Google Cloud Support Portal. The Portal only contains cases created within that platform.
Where can I see the full list of recent (open and closed) cases?

There is no list of recent cases in the Maps support page in the Google Cloud Platform Console. Please refer to your emails to see the latest status on your cases. If you want to see past cases created in the Google Cloud Support Portal you can still do so by visiting the Google Cloud Support Portal. Please note cases created in the Google Cloud Platform Console will not show up in the Google Cloud Support Portal.

Recommendation: If you want other users to have visibility into an open case you can reply to the case creation confirmation email (or any subsequent email) and add them in the CC field. An alternative to adding all users is to create a Google Group. By using a Google Group all group members will be able to read and reply in the support case and the group can also work as an archive of all support cases.

Should I stop using the Google Cloud Support Portal?
You can still use the Google Cloud Support Portal but we encourage customers to try the Google Cloud Platform Console support page because it provides an integrated experience.
I need to manage my Client ID, where can I find it?
Please log in to the Google Cloud Support Portal to manage your Client ID.
Where can I see my Premium Plan usage reports?
Premium Plan usage reports are not available in the Google Cloud Platform Console but they are still available in the Google Cloud Support Portal.
What if I am using the gaming or ridesharing solution?
Keep using the Google Cloud Support Portal following your product documentation.
