This example provides a function for generating the URL of signatures required for Google Maps API web service (business account) calls in Objective-C projects.

The original code is available here.

I simply took the necessary code to the URL signature generation and use it in a simple way.

You can test the generated signature with this tool

NSString *URLPortionToSign = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"/maps/api/geocode/json?address=%@&sensor=true&client=%@", address, clientId];
//get the signature
NSString *signature = [urlSigner signUrl:URLPortionToSign withThisKey:privateKey];

NSString *FullSignedURL = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://maps.googleapis.com%@&signature=%@", URLPortionToSign, signature];
