#3619 - High google Geocoding API usage

Closed Bug? created by Luiza 3 years ago

Dear support. After setting up Google's API, we noticed very high Geocoding API usage in Google's Cloud Panel. It shows an average of 3 geocoding API reuqests per minute, which very quickly builds Google Cloud costs. Initially we have created a case in SuiteCRM community (https://community.suitecrm.com/t/geocoding-high-google-api-usage-cost/79999/4) and thanks to them, we were able to narrow it down to TapCRM. Specifically - setupMobLogic::updateGeocodeInfo class/function. You will find more details in the mentioned SuiteCRM community forum post. Please let me know if You need more info.

My questions are: 1) Why is Google API usage so high for a system that is not (yet) used almost at all 2) How to decrease it?

I was expecting Google Geocoding API to be triggered only when address of a record is changed. Once Geocoding for an address is completed, I don't see a reason to geocode the same address again, until it changes again. I therefore can't understand, why TapCRM triggers Geocoding API 3 times a minute?

Kind Regards , Luiza
