Google place api: Place Search by country

Question

I’m working on the Google Place API with text search queries and I’m wondering how to filter the results for a specific country. Is there any way?

What I'm trying to do is call api with results filtered by country and then manage json result with php.

So this is a kind of request

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query=pizza&sensor=true&key=mykey 

I want to add a parameter like & country = us, but it doesn't seem to exist.

thanks

Answer 1

Pass the country code as a parameter to componentRestrictions in the parameters. Then pass these parameters as a parameter to google.maps.places.Autocomplete

eg.

 var options = { componentRestrictions: {country: 'in'} }; autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input, options); 

Answer 2

 for API : country:in AutocompleteFilter typeFilter = new AutocompleteFilter.Builder() .setCountry("IN") .build();
