using gRPC with Google Maps

[YuriB]

Hello everyone

I have successfully used REST API (from Rust) to call Google Maps to convert Lattitude/Longitude coordinates to the actual street address/location using this Maps API:

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-reverse-geocoding

My question is: can I now (in 2024) use gRPC to invoke the same call? If so, are there any links with examples (any language)?

thank you

Hi @YuriB 

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

There is currently no gRPC interface for the Google Maps Geocoding API that allows you to convert latitude/longitude coordinates to a street address/location.

Based on this document, the Google Maps Geocoding API can only function through the REST interface. 

I hope this information is helpful.

If you need further assistance, you can always file a ticket on our support team.

Thank you!
