Inconsistent "No Places Found" Error despite correct URL

Closed

lieferfabrik opened this issue
22 days ago

We are repeatedly encountering errors with the error message "No Places found", despite the Google Maps URL being correctly embedded and having worked both in the past and expected to function properly in future queries. However, during certain executions or requests, the data retrieval fails, resulting in empty error responses specifically in "No Places found". This issue persists even though the URL has been verified as correct.

Hey,

thanks for the report. The actor doesn't seem to handle google maps shortened urls. We'll look into it.

But I think its very weird issue because sometimes its working. I would say 80% to 85% of requests are working with shortened URL and sometimes its not working. Also URLS which arent working are working in next requests 6 hours later without issues

Let me know what do you think about it

Hey,

we've just released the fix, the actor should handle the shortened URLs better now. I'm gonna close the issue but feel free to reopen if you encounter any more issues.
