are google maps (road , satellite and hybrid) going to stop if we dont update traccar and aquire our own api key
If you don't upgrade, you can continue using old Google Maps, but Google might block you anytime. It doesn't depend on us.
As for device users option, I think it currently shows only directly linked users, as you noticed.
thank you for your replay ,
i have noticed something else , when i log into a readonly user i get this error of : write error denied -SecurityException.
Write access denied - SecurityException (PermissionsService:121 < *:130 < BaseObjectResource:104 < ... < OverrideFilter:49 < ...
This is the error
You should check console to see which API failed.
it is related to readonly user and its notification token
the problem with checking console is that the issue accure only when i try to log from android app , when loging using browser nothing happens.
Are you sure you upgraded both backend and frontend correctly to 6.3?
Yup that was the issue.
So when i tried both 6.3 server and front-end, now it's working.
Seems to me i m missing something related to how readOnly users are creating there notification token.
If you do have an idea please share it with me.
Thank you.
Just use the old Google Map with Traffic Info will do ... Else use OpenStreet Map instead ... :)
Just add Google Map Traffic Jam Layers view on Settings, Server, Preference,
Custom Map = https://mt0.google.com/vt/lyrs=m,traffic&hl=en&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}&s=Ga,
Default Map = Custom (XYZ),
Timezone = ???/???
thank you Rodney Yeo , this was helpfull .
Glad it helps as alternative to purchasing Google Map API keys for non commercial usage.
Remember that using that tile service is against Google's terms and conditions, unless you have an explicit permission from them.
We got permission for R&D purposes as University Education sector.
Interesting. Are you sure that's what they gave you permission for? And not normal APIs?
i have noticed that google maps in 6.3 became red and require api key , is this means that if we who will still be using old version will expect that google maps to stop working and we should aquire our own api key .
also another question if you kindly answer , i have noticed if you put a group of devices to a user , the new option to know who is it assign to will not work unless you put each individual device to that user.
thank you.
