}Autocomplete
Typeahead search: get suggestions as the user types. Optimised for low-latency responses. Supply focus.point.lat+focus.point.lon whenever you have spatial context — the user’s current location, map viewport, last-known anchor — so suggestions reflect where they are. Add boundary.country (comma-separated ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 codes) when the search context is country-bound.

Query Parameters
Partial text input for typeahead suggestions
Maximum number of results
1 <= x <= 40Latitude to bias results toward. Supply whenever you have spatial context — user's current location, map viewport, last-known anchor. Same-name places nearby float above distant namesakes. Pair with focus.point.lon.
-90 <= x <= 90Longitude to bias results toward. Pair with focus.point.lat.
-180 <= x <= 180Comma-separated ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country codes to restrict results (e.g. 'GBR' or 'GBR,USA'). Set when the search context is country-bound.
Comma-separated place types to filter: venue, address, street, locality, region, country
