Hi Everyone, I hope you can help me on how I can display retrieved current location Name Address after Pragmaflow gathered LatLong and display it as plain text on screen.
Pragmaflow > Saved LatLong to database > fetch reverse geocoding from google maps > save to database > display to screen as plain text
I see this on google maps but I dont know how to proceed with custom action.
To display the retrieved current location name and address as plain text on the screen in Pragmaflow, you can follow these steps:
Retrieve the saved latitude and longitude from your database in Pragmaflow.
Use the Google Maps Geocoding API to fetch the location name and address based on the retrieved latitude and longitude. You can make a HTTP GET request to the API endpoint using the latlng parameter to specify the latitude and longitude values, and your API key to authenticate the request.
Here’s an example URL format for the API request:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng={latitude},{longitude}&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
```
Replace `{latitude}` and `{longitude}` with the retrieved latitude and longitude values respectively, and `{YOUR_API_KEY}` with your Google Maps API key.
Parse the JSON response from the API request to extract the location name and address.
Save the location name and address to your database in Pragmaflow.
Display the location name and address as plain text on the screen using a label or text field component in your Pragmaflow app. You can retrieve the saved location name and address from your database and set the text property of the label or text field component to display them.
Note that you will need to have a valid Google Maps API key with the Geocoding API enabled to use this approach. Also, keep in mind that the Geocoding API has usage limits and may require billing if you exceed the free usage quota.
