GeturlasText issues or am I just hammering it:)

Featured Replies

Limitations on GeturlasText command, It's fantastic and now that I can scrape my websites and geocode my addresses, problem is I have built quite a table of them. Are there some limitations I should be aware of, ie quantity of calls for geocoding, number of urls called in a day??

There may not be and it could be me dealing with ISP limitations, in which case so be it.

However with the command itself or google geocodes/mapping stuff, anything?

I find after awhile I get nothing but 0 or consistent ERRORS even when the addresses are good.

Thankyou

the google static api is limited to 2048 characters I think, maybe that is the problem?

I don't think character length is not the issue, especially for the scraping. Domains are not long enough

When you get a result of "ERROR", call SMLastError to get a full description of what went wrong. If you can post that info, it will be easier to figure out what is going wrong.

Working on that last error, ironically getting an error:)

I did find this in further googling - New Feature: Reverse Geocoding!

I can still get my domain scrape working through the getLayoutObject, which is interesting because that means

a commonality of

1. Geocoding using the GetURLasText

2. Scraping the domain using also GetURLasText

Also it is on more than one terminal and more than one user on an apple network. Could there be issues at a Desktop/Filemaker/plugin? Maybe a reinstall...

I think when I get LastError more will be apparent.
