Regardless of how much information is provided to the Maps searchAutoComplete API, the response field structuredAddress is always null. This means I have to call the completionUrl afterwards to get a structured address. This consumes our quota and causes unnecessary Maps traffic.
Example request, autocompleting "450 Post St, San Francisco":
https://maps-api.apple.com/v1/searchAutocomplete?
q=450%20Post%20St%2C%20San%20Francisco
&resultTypeFilter=Address
&limitToCountries=US
&lang=en-US
responds 2 results with the actual address found, but each having only these fields:
- completionUrl
- displayLines
- location
Example:
{
"results": [
{
"completionUrl": "/v1/search?q=450%20Post%20St%20San%20Francisco%2C%20CA%2C%20United%20States&metadata=Ch8KCzQ1MCBQb3N0IFN0EgQIABADEgQIBBAEEgQICRACEjQKIFNhbiBGcmFuY2lzY28sIENBLCBVbml0ZWQgU3RhdGVzEgQIGhACEgQIABADEgQIBBAJGAIyRgoSCQAAAEDg5EJAEQAAAOA9ml7AEM6h0aK1wfKqciA5KQAAAAAAAHlAgvEEAzQ1MIjxBDGa8QQCVVOg8QQAsvEEALrxBABiHAoaNDUwIFBvc3QgU3QsIFNhbiBGcmFuY2lzY2%2BC8QQaNDUwIFBvc3QgU3QsIFNhbiBGcmFuY2lzY2%2BI8QQA2vEEFgkAAABAEf3IQBkAAAAAAAAAACABKAPq8QQAkPIEAQ%3D%3D",
"displayLines": [
"450 Post St",
"San Francisco, CA, United States"
],
"location": {
"latitude": 37.78809356689453,
"longitude": -122.41002655029297
}
},
{
"completionUrl": "/v1/search?q=450%20Post%20St%20Napa%2C%20CA%2C%20United%20States&metadata=****",
"displayLines": [
"450 Post St",
"Napa, CA, United States"
],
"location": {
"latitude": 38.30093002319336,
"longitude": -122.27799224853516
}
}
]
}
Anyone figured this out? Seems buggy to me.
