Address autocomplete
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
You can use the Google Places API on your website to ensure that your users' delivery addresses exist and are understood
|
|
by the carrier. The Google Places API allows developers to access detailed information about places using HTTP requests.
|
|
The autocompletion predicts a list of places when the user starts typing the address.

|
|
- `Google Developers Documentation: Google Places API
|
|
<https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/autocomplete>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
To do so, go to :menuselection:`Website --> Configuration --> Settings` and enable :guilabel:`Address Autocomplete` in
|
|
the :guilabel:`SEO` section.

|
|
|
Insert your :guilabel:`Google Places API key` in the :guilabel:`API Key` field. If you don't have one, create yours on
|
|
the `Google Cloud Console <https://console.cloud.google.com/getting-started>`_ and follow these steps.
|
|
|
|
Step 1: Enable the Google Places API
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
| **Create a New Project:**
|
|
| To enable the **Google Places API**, you first need to create a project. To do so, click :guilabel:`Select a project`
|
|
in the top left corner, :guilabel:`New Project`, and follow the prompts to set up your project.
|
|
|
|
| **Enable the Google Places API:**
|
|
| Go to the :guilabel:`Enabled APIs & Services` and click :guilabel:`+ ENABLE APIS AND SERVICES.` Search for
|
|
:guilabel:`"Places API"` and select it. Click on the :guilabel:`"Enable"` button.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
Google's pricing depends on the number of requests and their complexity.
|
|
|
|
Step 2: Create API Credentials
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
Go to `APIs & Services --> Credentials <https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials>`_.
|
|
|
|
| **Create credentials:**
|
|
| To create your credentials, go to :guilabel:`Credentials`, click :guilabel:`Create Credentials`, and select
|
|
:guilabel:`API key`.
|
|
|
|
.. admonition:: Restrict the API Key (Optional)
|
|
|
|
For security purposes, you can restrict the usage of your API key. You can go to the :guilabel:`API restrictions`
|
|
section to specify which APIs your key can access. For the Google Places API, you can restrict it to only allow
|
|
requests from specific websites or apps.
|
|
|
|
.. important::
|
|
- Save Your API Key: Copy your API key and securely store it.
|
|
- Do not share it publicly or expose it in client-side code.
