The latest service changes have not yet been reflected in this content. We will update the content as soon as possible. Please refer to the Korean version for information on the latest updates.

Available in VPC

After subscribing to Maps, you can register an application in the Application menu on the NAVER Cloud Platform console.

Note

Because Maps is provided as an API-based service, the NAVER Cloud Platform console allows only service subscription and termination, usage management, and navigation to the Style Editor web console.

The following summarizes what you can learn from this guide:

Register an application

You must register the application after agreeing to the API terms of service. An Application is required to use the Maps APIs. Once you register an application, a unique client ID and a client secret value are created per application. You must apply the authentication key to the Maps API to receive authentication for using NAVER Maps.

Note

For more information on how to call APIs, see NAVER integrated API call in NAVER Cloud Platform's API guide.

Caution

Maps API offers a free usage quota exclusively for the primary account. If you are not the representative account, be careful because you will be charged. To check whether the account currently logged into the console is a representative account, check View Maps representative account.

To register an application:

  1. In the VPC environment of the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to Menu > All Services > Application Services > Maps.
  2. Click the Application menu.
  3. Click [Register application].
  4. Enter the application name.
    • You can enter up to 20 characters.
    • Depending on the service, the application name may be displayed on the interface, so use a name up to 10 characters.
  5. In Select API, click on the API you wish to use.
  6. From the Service Environment Registration area, enter the service environment of the application.
    • Web service URL
      • You can enter up to 10 web service URLs that begin with http://.
      • Do not distinguish between http and https, and exclude www when entering the value. Example: http://naver.com
      • Enter the main domain only even if there are subdomains.
      • If information of the service URL differs from the web used, the authentication may fail.
      • For hybrid apps, enter location.href object outputs. Example: file://local URL
    • Android app package name.
      • For Android applications only, up to 10 can be entered.
      • If the entered package name differs from the package name of the using app, the authentication may fail.
    • iOS Bundle ID
      • For iOS applications only, you can enter up to 10.
      • If the registered bundle ID differs from the information of the app used, the authentication may fail.
    Note
    • When selecting Dynamic Map, you must enter at least one of the following: The Web service URL, Android app package name, or iOS Bundle ID. If not entered, the application registration will not be completed.
    • When selecting Static Map, a web service URL should be entered. Some restrictions may apply on using the API if it is not provided.
    • The client ID and secret value issued for a single application may be applied to multiple environments including Android, iOS, web, and Windows App. However, the API usage is added up by each client ID.
