Configuration

1. Environment Variables

Add the following environment variables to your config file, in order to allow the app to load data from the google-APIs:

CONTENT_SECURITY_POLICY_DIRECTIVES__SCRIPT_SRC=array:'self', 'unsafe-eval', https://*.googleapis.com
CONTENT_SECURITY_POLICY_DIRECTIVES__IMG_SRC=array:'self', data:, https://*.gstatic.com, https://*.googleapis.com

2. Google Maps API Setup

• Obtain a Google Maps API key from the Google Cloud Console. View Google documentation
• Enable the following APIs in your Google Cloud project:
  • Places API (New)
  • Maps JavaScript API

Recommended Security Measures:

• Restrict the API key to your domain
• Enable only the required services (Places API and Maps JavaScript API)

Interface Configuration

Autocomplete Settings

You can customize the autocomplete behavior using the interface settings. The configuration accepts standard Google Places Autocomplete parameters as documented in the Google Maps JavaScript API Reference.

Example Configuration:

{
    "includedRegionCodes": [
        "us"
    ]
}

This example restricts autocomplete results to US addresses only.
