Utilize Google Text Search API

[steven.priggea6]

I am trying to utilize a Google Maps “Text Search” API with my Thunkable App. It seems I am unable to generate a response from the API though clearly when I go to the URL (see below) there is a response there:

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query=chipotle%2015222&key=AIzaSyCHsVSIIEPl0pfKJbECykBGZT26UB8AZxg

The link to my project is here: Thunkable

My API key is already embedded in the API URL I pasted above.

So my goal is just to return the “Formatted Address” from the API and display those in my List Viewer.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

Steve

Assuming the Web API works, this block should fail

The response from the API has 3 main JSON blocks

• html_attributions
• results
• status

You are trying to loop through these keys and get the property of result from property formatted_address which does not exist in the response.

I updated my project, here is the updated link: Thunkable

What I am looking to do is get nested objects. As you will see in the response, formatte_address is a nested object within the results array. I found some documentation on Thunkable’s website on how to return nested objects: Objects - Thunkable Docs but still I am seeing “Null” for my API response. Could you advise?

See my response from your project

This is the blocks I used

I added a label just to show the error if available.
