Hi,

I've got an existing My Map which I want to embed with the API but
can't find out how it's done. Can anyone give me any pointers please?

Many thanks.

I know a "My Map" can be embedded in a web page (using simple iframe), but I don't know about using the API to fetch and display a My Map.

I'd like to know the answer to this as well.

Click on "View in Google Earth" (KML) or "RSS" (GeoRSS), use the URL
provided (or download the content and save to your public server),
display using KmlLayer.

Thank you Larry!

Adding a KML layer is part of what I was looking for. So far I've been
able to:

1. Add a KML My Maps layer to a map
2. Add a KML Picasa layer to a map

Very cool! Whenever new content is added to either of these sources my
map show the latest from both.

I'm still wondering if there is an API for adding content to a "My
Map", and get a list of maps for an account... My Tracks for Android
must be using some API to add tracks and weigh-points.

Thanks again.
