If values for Google API keys are provided the following element is added to the HTML of each page:
<span style="display: none;" id="google-api-settings" data-google-api-key="[value]" data-google-api-language="[value]" data-google-api-region="[value]">
This method of authentication was used before in checkout autocomplete (autosuggest) for addresses, However as this functionality was error prone, it was removed form MageSuite. The review of this part of module is needed.
When google maps should be displayed (f.e. on the store locator page) the following tag is added to the HEAD:
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?key=[value]" src_type="url"></script>
If fetches google maps object and assign it to the global space.
Google maps are used by the MageSuite store locator script and module
