Example prompt: Can you give me autocomplete suggestions for places matching 'Eiffel' near Paris, France, in English?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to provide real-time place name or address suggestions as a user types, such as powering a search autocomplete widget. It is the right choice when you have partial text and want ranked place predictions with structured metadata including place IDs for further lookup. Prefer this over geocoding when the goal is suggestion/discovery rather than resolving a known full address to coordinates.

## Known failure modes

- Empty input returns no predictions
- Overly generic input returns low-quality or irrelevant suggestions
- Invalid session token may cause billing issues but not functional failure
- Unsupported language code falls back to default language
- Country restriction filters out valid results if misconfigured
- Missing API key returns REQUEST_DENIED status
- Quota exceeded returns OVER_QUERY_LIMIT status
