• All Maps Datasets API requests require a Google Cloud project number or ID for billing and usage quota, specified in theX-Goog-User-Project header or using a service account.

• An OAuth token is necessary for authentication and should be included in theAuthorization header of each request.

• The request URL must contain the Google Cloud project number or ID and the dataset ID to specify the location of the dataset.

• Additional parameters may be required for certain requests, as detailed in the specific request documentation.

• You can obtain your Google Cloud project number or ID from the project's Overview page in the Cloud Console and generate an OAuth token using thegcloud command.

To make any request to Maps Datasets API, you must include:

• The number or ID of your Google Cloud project in theX-Goog-User-Project header of the request. This value determines theproject used for billing and usage quota calculations.

  Note: If you are using a service account for authentication, you can omittheX-Goog-User-Project header. For more information aboutservice accounts, seeAuthentication at Google.

• An OAuth token in theAuthorization header of the request. For moreinformation about using OAuth with Maps Datasets API, seeUse OAuth.

• A Google Cloud project number or ID in the request URL. This valuespecifies the project containing the dataset. While this project is usuallythe same as the project specified in theX-Goog-User-Project header, itis not required to be the same.

• The dataset ID in the request URL. Whenever you perform an action on aspecific dataset, you pass the ID of the dataset as part of the request URL.

curl -X DELETE \-H 'X-Goog-User-Project:PROJECT_NUMBER_OR_ID' \-H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)" \https://mapsplatformdatasets.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_NUMBER_OR_ID/datasets/DATASET_ID

1. Go to the project'sOverview page in the Cloud console.

2. If prompted, select your project.

3. TheProject number andProject ID appear in theProject infoarea of the overview screen.

Get an OAuth token

For authentication, your API request must contain an OAuth token in theAuthorization header. For more, seeUse OAuth.

For example, use the followinggcloud command to generate the token:

gcloud auth application-default print-access-token

You can include thegcloud command directly in theAuthorization header in acURL command to generate a new token on each request, as shown in the exampleabove.

Alternatively, you can set an environment variable containing the token and thenpass the environment variable as part of the request:

export TOKEN=$(gcloud auth application-default print-access-token)curl -X DELETE \-H 'X-Goog-User-Project:PROJECT_NUMBER_OR_ID' \-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \https://mapsplatformdatasets.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_NUMBER_OR_ID/datasets/DATASET_ID
