Contacting the support team

Creating a support case

Project Owners, Project Editors, and Tech Support Editors can create support cases. If you don’t have one of these roles, contact your Project Owner or Organization Admin to get access.

  1. Visit the Google Maps Platform Support page in the Google Cloud Platform Console.
  2. Select the project related to your question, in the top dropdown bar of the Google Cloud Platform Console.
    • To file a technical support case, you must have a Project Owner, Project Editor, or Tech Support Editor role.
    • To file a billing support case, you must have a Project Owner or Project Editor role.
  3. Fill out the fields in detail on the Create a new support case section. It may take a minute to create your case.

Granting support access

A Project Owner or an Organization Admin can grant all available roles from the IAM page.

  1. Open the IAM page in the Google Cloud Platform Console.
  2. Select Select a project > choose a project from the dropdown > Open.
  3. Select Add, then enter the new member’s email address.
    • You can add individuals, service accounts, or Google Groups as members, but every project must have at least one individual as a member.
  4. Select the member’s role. For best security practices, we strongly recommend giving the member the lowest permissions needed. Members with Project Owner permissions are able to manage all aspects of the project, including shutting it down.
    • To grant Project Owner or Project Editor permissions, choose the appropriate role under Project.
    • To limit a member’s permissions to filing technical support cases, choose the Tech Support Editor role under Support.
  5. Save your changes.
