This example demonstrates adding event handling to some gmp-advanced-marker elements, to show an InfoWindow when a marker is clicked.

Read the documentation.

TypeScript

// This example adds a map using web components.
async function initMap(): Promise<void> {
  const { Map } = await google.maps.importLibrary("maps") as google.maps.MapsLibrary;
  const { AdvancedMarkerElement } = await google.maps.importLibrary("marker") as google.maps.MarkerLibrary;

  console.log('Maps JavaScript API loaded.');

  const advancedMarkers = document.querySelectorAll("#marker-click-event-example gmp-advanced-marker");

  for (const advancedMarker of advancedMarkers) {

    customElements.whenDefined(advancedMarker.localName).then(async () => {
      advancedMarker.addEventListener('gmp-click', async () => {

        const infoWindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({
          //@ts-ignore
          content: advancedMarker.title,
        });
        infoWindow.open({
          //@ts-ignore
          anchor: advancedMarker
        });
      });
    });
  }
}
