# Map

The Map widget is a feature that lets you use Google Maps to show the location of your choice. This could be if you need to show where your company is located.

The map widget is a handy widget for this as it will display a map, and if you choose to, then the information can be displayed next to the map. The map will have a pointer set to the **Latitude** and **Longitude** of your choice.

The way it works is that you type in the **Latitude** and **Longitude** and select how zoomed in you want the map to be on a scale from 0 - 20 it is recommended to set it to 7.

## Google Maps API Key

To get the map working you first need a [Google maps API key](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key). Once you have your key go to the `Settings > General` node and paste it in the input under the `Tracking & Access` section**.**
