Google Places API自动完成-REQUEST_DENIED

Question

I'm having a difficult time getting a valid autocomplete response from the Google Places API. I'm using code based on [their example}( https://developers.google.com/places/training/autocomplete-android ) (which, interestingly is using a seemingly invalid country code of "uk" ).

I have enabled Places API in my Google Code Console. My API key was generated when I first enabled the Maps API a couple of weeks ago, and the MapFragment I'm using is working perfectly, so I have no reason to suspect that the API key is invalid.

The URL I'm using is https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/autocomplete/json?input=New+York&sensor=false&key=my_valid_api_key&components=country:us

I always get {"status":"REQUEST_DENIED","predictions":[]} as my response.

I have verified multiple times that my url is formed correctly and adheres to the requirements of the Places API autocomplete endpoint , yet I do not get the response I'm expecting.

I have seen a number of suggestions of how to fix this on SO and elsewhere, but none of them have worked for me (ie-using http instead of https, use port 443, etc.) I have tried these in all reasonable combinations with no change in the response.

Please help me find what I'm doing wrong.

Answer 1

I tried the URL you provided with my key and it returned the expected results. I suspect you are using an Android key instead of a Browser key. Try creating and using a Browser key (under "Simple API Access").

Answer 2

Use the server or browser key instead of the iOS key. Keep the refers field blank to allow all refers. Here is a sample project which does the same : https://github.com/manishnath/Autocomplete

Answer 3

Try this way https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/autocomplete/json?input=Aus&types=geocode&language=eng&key=your_APIKEY

Answer 4

REQUEST_DENIED表示您的请求被拒绝，通常是因为缺少传感器参数。
