Google Maps Geolocation Request

See more REST Examples

Demonstrates how make a Google Maps Geolocation REST API request. Go

    success := false

    // This example duplicates the following CURL request:
    // curl -d @your_filename.json -H "Content-Type: application/json" -i "https://www.googleapis.com/geolocation/v1/geolocate?key=YOUR_API_KEY"

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    rest := chilkat.NewRest()

    // Connect to the Google API REST server.
    bTls := true
    port := 443
    bAutoReconnect := true
    success = rest.Connect("www.googleapis.com",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect)

    // Add the Content-Type request header.
    rest.AddHeader("Content-Type","application/json")

    // Add your API key as a query parameter
    rest.AddQueryParam("key","YOUR_API_KEY")

    // The JSON query is contained in the body of the HTTP POST.
    // This is a sample query (which we'll dynamically build in this example)
