@sdetweil are there problems with Magic Mirror if using VirtualBox?

Thanks

sdetweil

@Egnos I don’t know. Haven’t tried that

@sdetweil
What does it mean when this message appears:
“This page didn’t load Google Maps correctly”

sdetweil

@Egnos I do not know

sdetweil

@Egnos sounds like u didn’t setup the API key

Hi @sdetweil
It would seem that to have a valid API Key you need to “Enabling billing on Google Cloud Platform …”.
To receive the API Key, you need to enter a valid credit card number.

Did you do this too?
Do you agree?

Thanks.

sdetweil

@Egnos yes. The apis are not free, altho our usage is typically below the 1st tier charge level

Egnos

@sdetweil so you also entered your credit card?
How many accesses does this module make per day?

sdetweil

@Egnos yes, credit card. I don’t know number of accesses. U can control that I think. Not my module.

Readme says default is once every 15 minutes

updateInterval

So, 96 times per day

Hi, i just a question about MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic and google console plateform. My period of free account is finished so my apy key is not usable. If i understand the only solution to obtain a valid api key with google maps is to pay ?

An other question is if the result is the same with api key for MMM-Google photos and MMM- MK2 ?

Thanks for next answers

@banbutcher
