Autofill search bar with suggestions of places from Google Maps

Imagine the search bar in Google Maps. I want to recreate that in Adalo. I have a google maps API key but unable to figure out how to get my search bar to start responding to the API by showing a list of places based on the text I type in it.

Found this thread from earlier which didn’t provide any answer - Autofill search bar with Google Maps locations

Hi Nikhil,

Welcome to the community :partying_face:

Not sure about the API but I think Adalo is building this feature :

And Complab also created a component for this that maybe you can use until Adalo release that feature :

Thank you

Thanks Dilon. The Complab option is a bit too expensive for me. Will wait for the Adalo feature. In the meanwhile, do you know of any work around that I could use?

Thank you

To recreate the Google Maps search bar functionality in Adalo, you can use the Google Places API with the API key you have to fetch and display a list of places and location based on the text entered into the search bar.
