Hi @lman-odoo ! This looks so much better than the old version 🤩 Take a look at my comments and suggestions and let me know if you'd like to discuss anything.

I don't see a redirection for this in the 19.0.txt redirects file in PyCharm (and we'll want to create one so the old content/applications/websites/website/configuration/address_autocomplete rst/url redirects to the new content/applications/general/integrations/address_autocomplete one)
Are you familiar with how to do that?

You are totally right!!! I totally forgot the redirection. I will add it. Sorry about that

I think the first sentence could be a little more direct, so I made a suggestion.
Also, since this documentation is aimed at regular users, I think we could probably drop the sentence about HTTP requests ... what do you think? And if we remove it, we should probably remove the link to the developers documentation too.
(Or ... maybe, for some reason, it would make sense to have a little admonition only for developers? I don't understand this well enough to know why a developer might be reading about this here. Maybe you have a better understanding about that?)

You are right! I guess we can remove it. I kept it because I thought it must have been added for some reason, but as you said, our documentation is aimed at regular users. Thank you!

If we do keep this: (see previous comment):
- should we be linking to this instead https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/overview? The current link seems to go to documentation about 'Place Autocomplete (Legacy)', rather than Places API documentation.
- from some Googling, this seems to be more often called just ' ... developer documentation', e.g.,

We can remove the HTTP request information from your previous comment. But I would still add this link as I think it could be useful.

Can we take a look at this together? (at the two scenarios: no project created & with one already there) I wonder if we need to edit this slightly as it confused me a bit (as I was doing it in an account where there was already a project).

Sure, let's discuss it!

Only commenting here because I'm a bit confused as to why we're seeing this, and I want to ask @auva-odoo about it. Because I guess you completely deleted the old image ... and here it's showing that you renamed it. So I'm just wondering why that shows here.
