Getting internal error when fetching Place

[manvirrr]

I get the list of predictions successfully but when I try to fetch a place, I get an internal error.

Unhandled Exception: PlatformException(API_ERROR, The operation couldn’t be completed. An internal error occurred in the Places SDK library. If you believe this error represents a bug, please file a report using the instructions on our community and support page (https://developers.google.com/places/ios-sdk/support)., null, null)

Thanks

@manvirrr What platform are you using? do you have any more relevant logs? If not, please provide a reproducible example.

Hi Matan,

i am using Flutter 3.0.4 with Dart 2.17.5 on Macbook M1 pro and Macbook Pro 16 Intel variant. It's the same error on both the machines.

I am able to get the list of Predictions using the package but when I pass the PlaceId to fetchPlace function, I get the above error.

So following is the base..

void initState() { // TODO: implement initState super.initState(); _googlePlaces = FlutterGooglePlacesSdk(key); }

Autocomplete( optionsBuilder: (textEditingValue) async { if (textEditingValue.text.length > 2) { final FindAutocompletePredictionsResponse predictions = await _googlePlaces .findAutocompletePredictions( textEditingValue.text, countries: ['PL'], newSessionToken: false); //print(predictions); return predictions.predictions; }

                          // final String request =
                          //     "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/autocomplete/json?input=${textEditingValue.text}&components=country:PL&key=${key}&sessiontoken=${sessionId}";
                          // final result = await client
                          //     .get(Uri.parse(request), headers: {
                          //   "referer": dotenv.env['HTTPREF']!,
                          //   "origin": dotenv.env['HTTPREF']!
                          // });
                          // print("${sessionId} - ${result.body}");
                          // if (result.statusCode == 200) {
                          //   return [result.body];
                          // }
                          return [];
                          //return jsonDecode(request)["predictions"];
                        },

Hi... I think i found the issue... I was not passing placefieldds to fetchPlace. Passing fields solved the issue... Thanks....

[matanshukry]

@manvirrr great.

Keeping tihs issue open since the package should return a better error than what you are getting in this case.

[manvirrr]

I think it would be better to make fields a required parameter.

flutter_google_places_sdk_platform_interface has been updated to mark parameter as required ( 0.2.4+2 ). Will update dependencies over time.
