Using Detailed Place Types With Outscraper Google Maps Places API
Are you looking for a more comprehensive categorization of places? Or perhaps you’re eager to find out whether a restaurant is Halal, Kosher, or Vegan? Maybe you’re searching for a specific place type like a “cell phone store” or an “Indian restaurant” and are frustrated because the Google Places API doesn’t provide these details. No worries, Outscraper has got you covered! Outscraper’s Google Places API allows you to access detailed place type information, including the business profile category seen on Google Maps. This means you can now extract extensive and specific data about a location, right down to the exact type of restaurant or shop. This is a feature Google Places API has yet to provide, making Outscraper an alternative for you. Dive into our API documentation to learn more about how Outscraper can assist you in getting the detailed place data you need and check the sample API responses to see how it works.
Sample API Responses
We will use the Outscraper Google Maps Places API to request information for two different queries. In the first query, we will search for Indian restaurants in Manhattan, NY, USA. The result limit in the query is only 3, as an example. In the second query, in order to see the place details of a steak house and to find its subtypes, we make a query only for that place.
