Folks, any suggestion on why I am receiving "REQUEST_DENIED" xml response when I use the google direction API web services from my android code. Nothing fancy here:- String hosturl="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/xml?";; String url = "origin=" +lat1 + " " + lon1 + "&destination=" + lat2 + " " + lon2 + "&sensor=true"; String tag[] = { "lat", "lng" }; ArrayList<GeoPoint> list_of_geopoints = new ArrayList<GeoPoint>(); HttpResponse response = null; try { HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient(); HttpContext localContext = new BasicHttpContext(); String newurl = URLEncoder.encode(url, "UTF-8"); String finalurl = hosturl + newurl; System.out.println(" Direction request going out:"+ finalurl); HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(finalurl); try{ response = httpClient.execute(httpPost, localContext); } catch (Exception exc){ System.out.println("IO Exeception in making direction request: "+ exc.getMessage()); //list_of_geopoints=null; return list_of_geopoints; } InputStream in = response.getEntity().getContent(); DocumentBuilder builder = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder(); Document doc = builder.parse(in); if (doc != null) { NodeList nl1, nl2, statusList; statusList = doc.getElementsByTagName("status");
when I print the status node, I get a REQUEST_DENIED. I see that others have also posted the same but did not get any response. I already have a key for my MAP API. However, I am not using the latest Google Places API as I believe I do not need to. I am completely clueless. I am making the app using Android 3.2 while running it on my HTC 1x which uses 4.1.1 My Map rendering is working and so is also my location details. However I am trying to show the direction btw 2 Geopoints. Any advice will be greatly appreciated. 2 days of frustration - I am sure it will be something very simple. thanks Sunny -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
