Solution 1:[1]

delete the following and check onces

System.out.println(getPlaceResponse);
    
JsonPath js1 = new JsonPath(getPlaceResponse);
String actualAddress = js1.getString("address");        
System.out.println(actualAddress);

there is no error in your program.

when you are copying json there might be some issue that all.

Solution 2:[2]

You used json path so only u got that error. Then how it will be converted when you are running the program.

Copy it in the program then you will json formate conversation in eclipse.

It won’t accept json formate directly.

Solution 3:[3]

Use resource maps/api/place/get/json instead of maps/api/place/update/json. We are getting the data right.
