Affecting me too, on linux python 2.7, VERSION file in sdk is:
release: "1.9.10"
timestamp: 1407785464
api_versions: ['1']

Thanks.

Affecting me as well. It'd be nice to get this fixed so that we can properly test client errors in endpoints.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I have forwarded your report to the engineering team and any questions they have will be posted here. Further status updates will be posted here as well.

Best regards,

Hurmm...next time dont make EDDIT OR HACK SYSTEM

Sent me link

This is wrong fix

I feel the actual problem is lack of transparency on the limits being imposed, particularly for the Javascript API. For the Directions API, it is well written in the documentation that 2,500 free directions requests are allowed per day, at a rate of 10 requests per second. The Javascript API documentation, on the contrary, does not mention the limits on individual service. The only limit I can see from the documentation is "Free until exceeding 25,000 map loads per 24 hours for 90 consecutive days".

As a consequence, developers either assume the limits of the JavaScript API Directions Service is the same as that of the Directions API, or they do a stress test on the API themselves to guess how much requests Google will allow. For developers doing the latter, they apparently observed a change in behavior compare to the previous version, and for over 3 years there is no confirmation officially given.

Your suggestion in using the Directions API may or may not resolve our problem eventually, but it is certain that the lack of transparency now causes extra development and testing effort for each developer experiencing this problem.

In addition, it is clearly written in your documentation the following:

> This service is generally designed for calculating directions for static (known in advance) addresses for placement of application content on a map; this service is not designed to respond in real time to user input, for example. For dynamic directions calculations (for example, within a user interface element), consult the documentation for the Google Maps JavaScript API Directions Service.

As you have seen in this thread, at least a few developers are doing exactly what is described. They have a user interface for users to add multiple places (could be over hundred), and then the routes for each pair of places are computed. I don't see a reason why we have to switch over to the Directions API then - given that the JavaScript API is designed to entertain client side user interaction.

At the very least, could you please disclose the limits in the documentation, such that developers can take into consideration when designing their application?

Hii.
I have one question for you about google map api.
I am getting this message:
"You have exceeded your daily request quota for this API. If you did not set a custom daily request quota, verify your project has an active billing account: http://g.co/dev/maps-no-account"
I got this error yesterday at 13PM. At 00:00 it should be restarted but I can not access to this service yet? Have anyone known what can be a problem or when will access be enabled?
Thanks a lot. Mladen

Hi Mladen,
re#18 This error is not related to the same issue
It looks like you are having issues because you did not set up a billing account. Please follow instructions from http://g.co/dev/maps-no-account"
If this does not work please create a support case via https://console.cloud.google.com/google/maps-apis/support in order to open personalized communication channel. Public issue tracker is not supposed to be used for issues like this one. It is aimed to report API bugs and feature requests.

An update from our Engineering team is that Maps APIs is working as expected with the quota rate limiting functionality, but they are ok to consider this as a FR for the product.
I will update it to FR for our PM team to look at.

+1 any updates on this FR?

When I call the Places API from my web server I can use it very fast, but when I call it from the JavaScript API I can only call it 10 times a second.  This forces me to either write more server-side code (boo) or write a javascript rate limiting function.

I want set unlimit quota  Maps JavaScript API. What should I do to  set unlimit.

Thank you all for your messages. This is being fixed and will be live in early 2023.

Better late than never I suppose.
