# Google Maps API for geolocation

 * Good morning, we have a document with 2000 stores that we want to appear on the
   map that we want to implement on a website, but we have the address without latitude
   and longitude. Is it possible that the plugin automatically transforms the address
   into latitude and longitude? and if so, is it a free functionality?
 * On the other hand, I would need please the manual to create a Google Maps api
   for geolocation.
 * Best regards and thanks

 * Hi [@franrodriguezteveo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/franrodriguezteveo/)
   
   The pro version of our plugin can import locations without LAT and LNG – it geocodes
   them on import as long as you have a valid API key from Google.

 * Only thing is: how do you set the API key. As there is no field in WP GMaps plugin
   to put the API code in. Your instructions video shows an ‘Google Maps API’ field
   in settings > advanced, but there’s only an open route field if you check :((

 * Found it: you first have to switch from ‘Open Layers’ to ‘Google Maps’ in the
   first tab. that reveals the Google Maps API field
