Why do I need a Google API Key?
An API (Application Program Interface) is a system that allows two different applications to exchange information. For your InCom Account, this means Google Maps exchanging information with your website.
You create a key that will allow your website to use the power of Google Maps when visitors are searching for homes on your website. Visitors can map out Cities, Towns, and Neighborhoods based on areas mapped out by Google. Visitors can also show key amenities on the map search, such as the location of local shopping, schools, daycares, parks, and more.
Can I change the default location of my map search?
Yes, you can change it by going to the Configuration menu and selecting Map Search Page Configuration. Drag and drop the pin to your desired location, or use the search bar to find a location.
How can I create shortened links to custom searches?
