Free Geocoding API now requires API key #8

Open jose-elias-alvarez opened 7 months ago

The Free Geocoding API now requires an API key, which you can get by registering an account (it's still free). Once you have a key, you'll want to update the plugin to version 2.0.0 or later and then configure the key in the plugin's settings, as described in the README.

As of March 2024, it seems that 1 out of every 2 requests without an API key fails (some kind of transition strategy?) but I assume that in the future, all requests without a key will fail, so I'd recommend setting up a key sooner rather than later.
