Hi All,    I have been playing with the GoogleGeocoder from the FMEpedia and I am  trying to geocode with cryptokey and clientID. All adresse are rejected with error :

 

"HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden". 

 

I think the issu is an PythonCaller to retrieve encodedsignature.!

 

  Any help??? .    Thanks an advance.    regards,

Hi,

 

 

the Client ID and Crypto Key should not be specified unless you have a paid subscription to Google Maps Business.

 

 

Does it work if you omit these two fields?

Hi,

 

 

have a look at the terms of the Google Geocoder here:

 

 

"Use of the Google Geocoding API is subject to a query limit of 2,500 requests per day. (User of Google Maps API for Business may perform up to 100,000 requests per day.)"

Hi,

 

 

this is a question you should be asking Google, the provider of the webservice.

 

 

But yes, the "Google Maps API for Business" is a product you will have to pay for. You can google it for more info.
