High Amount of Geocoding API Requests

Hello, 

I have an Appsheet app that maps a large number of rows onto the google map that Appsheet provides. There is somewhere around 130,000 total rows. These rows are being mapped using a column that contains a pair of latitude/longitude coordinates and not an address. I have enabled 'Use my Google Maps Integration' and have been tracking the amount of geocoding requests for the past month and it's really high when I believe it should be relatively low.  It is my understanding that a geocoding request happens when you want to convert an address to lat/long coordinate and vice versa.  If I'm using lat/long coordinates to place a marker onto the map, the total amount of requests should hypothetically be 0, is this correct? My total amount of geocoding api requests last month was somewhere around 120,000 and I can't seem to find any more information about why/when a geocoding request is allowed and made besides what I've read here: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/usage-and-billing 

Any Ideas on where the geocoding requests are coming from? Am I correct that mapping with lat/long should yield 0 geocoding requests? Please let me know what you think and thanks in advance.

Sounds to me like your assumption should be correct, lat/long not requiring geocoding that is. Did you see this article?
