Using Google Maps API

Post by Fitz » Tue Jan 19, 2016 8:31 pm

Hello, i am fairly new to Livecode. I have been trying for while to implement a Google Map within my application, that i can do. However i m not sure where to put my API key.

My code is:
~put "//maps.googleapis/maps/api/geocode/json?address="&tMessage&"&sensor=false" into tURL

put url tURL into leGeoCode~

Usually i would put the api key after json?... however when i do this i get an error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
