shiny app gets '400 Bad Request' trying to get data from google api

[eliav schmulewitz]

Fair disclosure: I posted this on SO: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27015311/shiny-app-gets-400-bad-request-trying-to-get-data-from-google-api

but it seems like ther is not much traffic to my question.

As part of my shiny app I call geocode() from the ggmap R package. 
The data is geocoded and gets a result - i can see that from my console trying to run the app locally and from the log on the shinyapps.io dash board.
After the end of the geocode i get the next message:

.Warning in readLines(connect) :
  cannot open: HTTP status was '400 Bad Request'
Error in readLines(connect) : cannot open the connection  

have a clue?

Thanks

Eliav,

Just to confirm my understanding.  The app you have runs properly on your local machine, but you get this 400 Bad Request when you run it on shinyapps.io?  Can you send a URL to your application, and the output of shinyapps::showLogs() and your sessionInfo() output please?

Got it, so the issue you are seeing is not really one related to shinyapps.io it is more of a shiny question is that correct?

I guess  so...

even though the app used to be on spark and work...
