    Sounds stupid, but since there is no specific example in documentation, its not clear how to use the api key.
    This part of code from documentation is not clear:

    <script type="text/javascript"
          src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key={API_KEY}&sensor=SET_TO_TRUE_OR_FALSE">
        </script>
    

    Well I will find my apikey, let's say that the value of my api key will be for example: 123456ABCDEFG

    So how should I used it?

    1)src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key={123456ABCDEFG}&sensor=false"
    or
    2)src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=123456ABCDEFG&sensor=false"
    or else?
