For Map Control user need to Add Google Map API

 

Map Variables

If Start GPS Action is applied using Map Control without adding Google Map API , then Error is triggered. User can display this Error using the Map Variables.

 

1. User can apply "Alert" action on "Error" event of Start GPS Action.

2. Enter "__ERR_CODE__" in the Alert Title parameter.

3. Enter "__ERR__MSG__" in the Alert Message parameter.

 

Map Variables

S. No.

Variable Name

Description

1

_ERR_CODE_

ERROR CODE is the Name of the

Error which is triggered during Map Action.

2

_ERR_MSG_

ERR_MSG is the Error Message of the Error which is triggered during Map Action.

 

If Google Maps API key  is NULL or INVALID

1)In Preview (If key=NULL)

If User continued with out specifying the API key and previewed the app then a default alert for key will  popup.

2) In Android and iOS (If Key=NULL)

In case of Android and iOS if the key is blank then "On alert" of Map actions will be triggered.

3) In MW, Android and iOS (If Key= Invalid)

In case Key is invalid or expired then all RTs will trigger "On Alert" event and the particular error message returned by the API will be stored in "__ERR_MSG__" Global variable

 

4) Preview/ MW cannot read API generated messages in case of API key NULL or expired. So "__ERR_MSG__" implementation is technical limitation.

 

5) The platforms behave differently as stated above when global error message (ERR_CODE) is used
