Get Premises / Building name using Google Places API

Hihi, i am facing a problem in getting responses from the Google Map API. I am able to open the url in browser and it show the json data structure. but, when i try to Get from the WebAPI in thunkable, it return null and undefined. Can any one help? Below is my code and block.
Thank you in advanced

Below is the code to get the name premises and building.\ (Not working)

Google map url: https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/search/json?location=3.20273190176893,101.4601328660707&rankby=distance&types=establishment&sensor=false&key=API_KEY

This is the code for reverse geocoding and it works perfect.
Google map url: https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=3.1997243,101.4471895&key=API_Key

The reason why i need to use PLACES AI as i need to get the building name instead of formatted address in the reverse geocoding.

Thank you in advanced.

The problem is probably that you included the [gear] list block. You should almost never use that block. If your “results” property returns a list then the in list block will be able to handle that. What you’ve done is potentially make a list of lists which will throw everything off.

If that’s not the fix, then post the full JSON response (green response block) as text here and format it using the </> button in the forums toolbar to strip out any smart quotes that will invalidate the JSON.

Thanks for your reply.
No, it does not fix…
This is the json code.

Actually my problem is after call the API, it return null and undefined…
status of Get WebAPI is undefined

For some reason that JSON is not valid (for example, if you paste it into Best JSON Viewer and JSON Beautifier Online).

But the “name” property is located at results[1].name. So you’d need to get the “name” property of the first list item of the “results” property which is what you did above. That should work. Can you try just getting the “results[1].name” property of the object? Don’t use any list blocks for this second method. Make sure to check the green error block and the green response block in each case.

Post a new screenshot of your blocks for each of those methods.
