I'm trying to use Google's APIs Client Library for Python and I'm stuck at the very beginning of their "Getting started" tutorial. I'm trying to build a service object. The code they give is:

from apiclient.discovery import build
service = build('api_name', 'api_version', ...)

Which I adapt to:

from apiclient.discovery import build
service = build('Google Maps Engine API', 'v2')

But I keep getting this error, despite trying different versions of the package name (without spaces, all lowercase, with underscores instead of spaces etc.):

    198     raise HttpError(resp, content, uri=requested_url)

UnknownApiNameOrVersion: name: Google Maps Engine API  version: v2

Could somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong? I feel like I'm missing something obvious..

Thanks in advance!
