Hi everyone,

For my app, I want users to enter their location and then, using web API to scrape data from Google Maps, for the app to display all of the locations near them. How would I go about coding this?

I would appreciate any help!

Hey @bobsunscreen,

Does Google Maps have an open endpoint for getting “Near me” data?

Hi @domhnallohanlon! Google Maps has a [Place Search API](https://developers.google.com/places/web-service/search) although I don’t know how I would go about implementing this API in my Thunkable app.
