Re: HTTP GET request using ENV from Figaro Gem

[Aleksey Zapparov]

It's clearly issue with `ENV["google_api_key"]` you should inspect
what it returns. As you said you are using Figaro - you should not use
`ENV["google_api_key"]` in code, instead use
`Figaro.env.google_api_key`. In any case this is out of the scope of
HTTP gem.
