This is what I did and worked for me.

Go to the mentioned path in your plugin folder: advanced-custom-fields\core\fields

Inside the fields folder you will find google-map.php

At around line number 291 you will find a function

`function input_admin_footer() {

// vars
$api = array(
‘libraries’ => ‘places’,
‘key’ => ”,
‘client’ => ”
);

……..

}`

Add your api key to the ‘key’ for example:

function input_admin_footer() {
	   	
	   	// vars
	   	$api = array(
			'libraries'		=> 'places',
			'key'			=> 'your google map api key here',
			'client'		=> ''
	   	);
	   	
	   	........
	
   	}

Get your api key here:
