Research Google Search Queries API OR second API #7

Open MichaelFriel opened 9 months ago

MichaelFriel commented 9 months ago

UPDATED DESCRIPTION:

The Google Search Queries API might not be ideal, so we may need to find a different API to integrate.

We need to research the Google Search Queries API, to understand what kind of data we can present and how this can be integrated with the general recipe functionality.

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/search-nearby

Will we be able to keep this free?
Will we be able to retrieve the user's location (or have them enter it) and only return restaurants?

Hi Dhivya,

Would you be able to research a second API for us to implement? We are currently only using Spoonacular, so will need to add a second.

In truth, this can just be a completely separate function if needed, but of course better if you can find a way to include it and enhance the shopping list functionality.
