Best Practice for API Key

Open edencorbin opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Do you want to request a feature or report a bug? feature

What is the current behavior? api key goes in script tag

If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem. not a bug

What is the expected behavior? works fine

Which versions of ReactPlacesAutocomplete, and which browser / OS are affected by this issue? latest version

I'm wondering what a good practice is for using an api_key, I'm guessing its not okay to just include it in the script tag of the website as it could be taken easily. I could make the requests from my server instead, but it seems that this library requires the google api key directly via the script. I must be not understanding the standard approach here?
