Hello guys.
Am implementing Autocomplete for places in compose android,but anytime i enter a letter in the search bar, the app crushes. I have followed the docs and initialized places with an API key but it seems that my intent reault is null. Below is my code snippet.

// Initialize Map api
Places.initialize(context, Constants.MAP_API_KEY)

val launcher = rememberLauncherForActivityResult(
contract = ActivityResultContracts.StartActivityForResult()
) { result ->
if (result.resultCode == 2) {
val place = Autocomplete.getPlaceFromIntent(result.data)
place.address?.let {address ->
RequestServiceFormEvent.TaskLocationChanged(
address
)
}
}
}

Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Intent expected to contain a Place, but doesn't.
help me solve this error

Why are you checking resultCode == 2 ? Shouldn't it be resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK (which is -1)? Apart from that, how are you launching the intent? Maybe the issue is there

I did try it with resultCode== Activity. RESULT_OK. This was after countless tries. Appologies i posted the question with an error. After research, i have also found that this is a common bug and am working on a new alternative to it. I will post a link to tye alternative approach to it so that it can help someone also.
Thanks David for the assistance
