- Autocomplete placesReturns autocomplete suggestions for places as the user types their search query. This endpoint provides real-time search suggestions including places, search terms, and geographic areas. Use this action when you need to provide typeahead/autocomplete functionality for place searches, typically after a user has entered at least 3 characters. The results are optimized for interactive search experiences and include text highlighting to show matched portions of the query.
- Get trending venuesRetrieves venues currently trending in a specified geographic area, sorted by popularity based on recent foot traffic and activity patterns. This action identifies places experiencing increased visitor engagement over a 6-month period, making it ideal for discovering what's hot and popular right now in a given location. The popularity metric ranges from 0 to 1, with higher values indicating stronger trending status based on real-world visitation data. Use this action when you need to find popular venues, discover trending spots, or identify places with high current engagement in a specific area. This is particularly useful for recommendations, local discovery features, or understanding which venues are currently experiencing peak popularity.
- Retrieve nearby places v3The GetNearbyPlaces endpoint retrieves a list of places near a specified location, primarily supporting check-in use cases and local discovery. It returns points of interest (POIs) including lower quality results not found in the standard Place Search, enhancing location-based experiences with additional data like photos, reviews, and tips. This endpoint is ideal for applications seeking to provide users with a comprehensive view of their surroundings, including less prominent or newer locations. While it offers a broader range of results, it may sacrifice some precision compared to more focused search endpoints. Use this when you want to offer users a diverse array of nearby options, particularly for social check-in features or exploratory local recommendations.
