Place Api For Android

Post a Comment
I'm trying to use the Google Places API in my application. For that I need to generate Server Key. I used my device IP address to generate a Server Key. My app works only in my dev

Solution 1:

Try to create a new Places API key. When creating the key choose the server but leave the IP field blank (so as to allow any IP address). Notify and vote up if it works.

Solution 2:

To generate the server key that works for all devices,

The Google Places API uses an API key to identify your application. API keys are managed through the Google APIs Console. You'll need your own server API key before you can begin using the API. To activate the Places API and create your key:

  • Visit the Google APIs Console at https://code.google.com/apis/console and log in with your Google account.
  • A default project called API Project is created for you when you first log in to the APIs Console. You can use the project, or create a new one by clicking the API Project button at the top of the window and selecting Create. Maps API for Business customers must use the API project created for them as part of their Places for Business purchase.
  • Click the Services link in the left-hand navigation panel.
  • Click the status switch (the on/off button) next to the Places API entry. The switch slides to ON.
  • Click API Access in the left-hand navigation panel.
  • Click Create new Server key.
  • Enter one or more server IP addresses if you wish to restrict the servers that can send API requests.
  • Click Create. Your API key appears under the heading Key for server apps (with IP locking).

NOTE:

To Create new Server key -

The documentation clearly says:

You'll need your own server API key before you can begin using the API You cannot access this api from your device, you suppose to access it from your server and path the information to your users.
