Google API key restriction

[kimsean]

Hello. How do you handle Google API Key restrictions ? I already added package name and SHA-1 and it seems that its not working. I still don't have access

I don't think there's a way to do it using this library or any react-native library as a matter of fact.

Check this issue.

Also, check the compatibility section from react-native-google-places-autocomplete library's README file:

Compatibility

This library does not use the iOS, Android or JS SDKs from Google. This comes with some Pros and Cons.

Pros:

• smaller app size
• better privacy for your users (although Google still tracks server calls)
• no need to keep up with sdk updates

Cons:

• the library is not compatible with a Application key restrictions
• doesn't work directly on the web without a proxy server
• any Google API change can be a breaking change for the library.

I think that this library is using the APIs the same way, so I guess you cannot restrict the API keys.
