How do I get to Google Code Playground?

Question

I use to be able to get to Google Code Playground page.

As discussed in A guide to Google Code PlayGround

Its a web-based tool that lets web developers try out all of the APIs that Google provides, tweak the code, and see the results, I found it very useful.

But now when I try, I get redirected to API Explorer!

Has anyone got any ideas why?

Thanks in advance.

Google took the Code Playground down. – pyrrhic Aug 06 '14 at 17:00 — pyrrhic, Aug 06 '14 at 17:00
I too searched for it like for hours, No trace of it. – Siddharth May 11 '22 at 20:07 — Siddharth, May 11 '22 at 20:07

I don't know why they changed it, but probably you will need to go to the specific API/product you're looking for and search there.

For example, I used to teach the Visualization APIs with the playground, but these seem to have been reclassified as a chart "product" with the interactive code editing now hosted through JSFiddle:

https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery

Good luck (re)locating what you're looking for.

Thanks SusanEMcG, I found what I was looking for, but its a pity, I had found the playground a useful tool for testing my own code! – Sep 23 '14 at 10:53
