Google Maps without API

In new versions of traccar, google maps settings are "built-in" and works by design. In older versions, you can also add them using your own map by simply providing the URL https://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs=m,traffic&hl=en&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}&s=Ga without API

Is it legal to use these software and google maps in this way when traccar is also used, e.g. commercially?

How many times was this already answered?

You need a license from Google.

Yeah, you need a permission from Google. Standard license doesn't cover it.

I suppose this isn't entirely compatible with google tos and I thought that was why it was never implemented as built-in functionality. However, I'm glad it works :)

Yes, it's not compatible with the standard Goole terms, but if you do have a permission from Google, you can use it.
