Instead of using the default Google Maps, I decided to use a package called GMaps.js, which is designed to simplify the process.
I am currently trying to figure out how to assign an ID to a Marker in GMap.js. Here is what I have so far:
map.addMarker({
lat: 63.998847,
lng: 11.486882,
title: 'Test Marker',
id: 'marker'
});
