GMSMapView not showing anything

Question

I currently have a UIView in my View Controller which I have changed to a GMSMapView in the Interface Builder, but nothing shows up, as shown in the picture below:

Here is the code that I am using

    let lat = 47.07903
    let long = -122.961283

    let camera = GMSCameraPosition.cameraWithLatitude(lat, longitude: long, zoom: 10)
    let map = GMSMapView.mapWithFrame(CGRectZero, camera: camera)
    map.myLocationEnabled = true
    map.delegate = self
    self.mapView.addSubview(map)

    let marker = GMSMarker()
    marker.position = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(lat, long)
    marker.map = self.mapView

I have declared mapView as such using drag and drop:

@IBOutlet var mapView: GMSMapView!

Any help here would be much appreciated. I have tried a lot of different things! Thanks!

This worked for me. https://stackoverflow.com/a/47308301/7560912 You probably have not enabled the google maps API. Go to your app-project's dashboard on https://console.developers.google.com and click the "ENABLE APIS AND SERVICES". There, under the MAPS section select "the Google maps sdk for ios" and enable it.
