ApiException: 9003: PLACES_API_ACCESS_NOT_CONFIGURED

Question

I am following the current place tutorial on : Select Current Place and Show Details on a Map

I keep getting the following runtime exception:

com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 9003: PLACES_API_ACCESS_NOT_CONFIGURED

I have tried the following steps:

1. Enabling the Places API in the developers console
2. Using the migration guide : Migrating to the New Places SDK Client #New methods for the new Places SDK as this tutorial was using a deprecated Places SDK, i.e adding the new dependency.
3. Adding the following code in my Android Manifest File

<meta-data
    android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
    android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />    
<meta-data
    android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
    android:value="@string/api_key" />

4. Regenerated my API key.

I am also using the Maps SDK which seems to be working fine. Both the Maps SDK and Places API are enabled on the developer console.

Even after trying all these steps, I keep getting the runtime error:

ApiException: 9003: PLACES_API_ACCESS_NOT_CONFIGURED error

Kaiulani

I am also facing the same issue from past 2 days. Let me know if you find the solution. – Influenza

Sure. What else have you tried out that did not work? – Kaiulani

@Kaiulani I think you unable to implement migration guide to your code.I am posting my answer .See it and implement it. – Infelicitous

Answer 1

Many friends suggested me to post how I have implemented this(AutoComplete) on my Project .So I am suggested you to see this migration guide and implement on your project step by step.

Migration Guide:-https://developers.google.com/places/android-sdk/client-migration

GO to this link to create API Key:

Follows this steps to implement AutoComplete in your project :-

There is two way to implement to AutoComplete .

1. Using Intent

2. Using AutocompleteFragment

   In both case follow these steps:-

    1. Add this line in build.gradle file
   
   dependencies {
     implementation 'com.google.android.libraries.places:places:2.1.0'
   }
   
    2. Add other dependencies (This is optional) .
   
   dependencies {
     implementation 'com.google.android.libraries.places:places-compat:1.0.0'
   }
   
   implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:16.0.0'
   
    3. // Add an import statement for the client library.
   
   import com.google.android.libraries.places.api.Places;
   
   // Initialize Places.
   
   Places.initialize(getApplicationContext(), apiKey);
   
   // Create a new Places client instance.
   
   PlacesClient placesClient = Places.createClient(this);
   

   ----------Now Choose any of the method you want to implement in your project.-----

   Using Intent

    if (!Places.isInitialized()) {
           Places.initialize(getApplicationContext(), "YOUR_API_KEY");
       }
   
       ...
   
       // Set the fields to specify which types of place data to return.
       List<Place.Field> fields = Arrays.asList(Place.Field.ID, Place.Field.NAME);
   
       // Start the autocomplete intent.
       Intent intent = new Autocomplete.IntentBuilder(
               AutocompleteActivityMode.FULLSCREEN, fields)
               .build(this);
       startActivityForResult(intent, AUTOCOMPLETE_REQUEST_CODE);
   
   
   and OnActivityResult method-------
   
   
       /**
        * Override the activity's onActivityResult(), check the request code, and
        * do something with the returned place data (in this example it's place name and place ID).
        */
       @Override
       protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
           if (requestCode == AUTOCOMPLETE_REQUEST_CODE) {
               if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
                   Place place = Autocomplete.getPlaceFromIntent(data);
                   Log.i(TAG, "Place: " + place.getName() + ", " + place.getId());
               } else if (resultCode == AutocompleteActivity.RESULT_ERROR) {
                   // TODO: Handle the error.
                   Status status = Autocomplete.getStatusFromIntent(data);
                   Log.i(TAG, status.getStatusMessage());
               } else if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
                   // The user canceled the operation.
               }
           }
       }
   

   Using Fregment

   Initialize this Autocomplete Fregment on .xml file

   <fragment
     android:id="@+id/autocomplete_fragment"
     android:layout_width="match_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
     android:name=
   "com.google.android.libraries.places.widget.AutocompleteSupportFragment"
     />
   

   -------------- and on .class file--------------------------

   Initialize Places, passing the application context and your API key. Initialize the AutocompleteSupportFragment. Call setPlaceFields() to indicate the types of place data that you want to get. Add a PlaceSelectionListener to do something with the result, as well as handle any errors that might occur. The following example shows adding an autocomplete widget to an activity:

    if (!Places.isInitialized()) {
           Places.initialize(getApplicationContext(), "YOUR_API_KEY");
       }
   
   
       // Initialize the AutocompleteSupportFragment.
   
       AutocompleteSupportFragment autocompleteFragment = (AutocompleteSupportFragment)
               getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.autocomplete_fragment);
   
   
       autocompleteFragment.setPlaceFields(Arrays.asList(Place.Field.ID, Place.Field.NAME));
   
   
       autocompleteFragment.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(new PlaceSelectionListener() {
           @Override
           public void onPlaceSelected(Place place) {
               // TODO: Get info about the selected place.
               Log.i(TAG, "Place: " + place.getName() + ", " + place.getId());
           }
   
           @Override
           public void onError(Status status) {
               // TODO: Handle the error.
               Log.i(TAG, "An error occurred: " + status);
           }
       });
   

And Get LATLONG from selected place like this:-

    LatLng latLng = place.getLatLng();
    String mStringLatitude = String.valueOf(latLng.latitude);
    String mStringLongitude = String.valueOf(latLng.longitude);

Hope this will help you .
