如何将 Google 我的地图与 API 密钥集成？

Question

I have spent the past few months creating a custom map on google My Map. I'd like to now plug it to an API key to put it on my website as my website builder wont allow me to embed like you would probably do normally.

I don't really understand API keys no matter how much I research them but in summary - Is it possible to import a Google My Map to be a associated with an API key so I can put the API key on my website to enable an interactive map?

I thought by signing up to get an API key I would be able to import my google my map to the maps platform map manager and therefore associate it with my API key, import the key to website and have an interactive map. From looking on the map manager on the maps platform, it will only allow you to choose one location or start a map from scratch and doesn't allow you to import spreadsheet data - unlike with google my maps.

Can't find any answers anywhere so any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

Found my answer at last on this thread: Google My Maps - API

It's a shame really I thought without a doubt you'd be able to link the two together.
