Page Summary
-
This example demonstrates how to use the Google Maps JavaScript API's geocoding service to retrieve an address for a given Place ID.
-
It utilizes the
Geocoderobject to perform the geocoding request, providing the Place ID as input. -
Upon successful geocoding, the example updates the map's center and zoom level, adds a marker at the retrieved location, and displays the formatted address in an info window.
-
The example is provided in both TypeScript and JavaScript, showcasing how to implement the functionality in either language.
-
Users can try the sample using JSFiddle or Google Cloud Shell, and can also clone and run it locally with Git and Node.js.
This example uses geocoding to retrieve an address for a given place ID.
