If you have an existingPlaceobject or place ID, use thePlace.fetchFields()method to get details about that place. Provide a comma-separated list ofplace data fieldsto return;
specify field names in camel case. Use the returnedPlaceobject to get data for the
requested fields.
The following example uses a place ID to create a newPlace, callsPlace.fetchFields()requesting thedisplayNameandformattedAddressfields, adds a marker
to the map, and logs some data to the console.

Use the returned `Place` object to get data for the\nrequested fields.\n\n\nThe following example uses a place ID to create a new `Place`, calls `Place.fetchFields()`\nrequesting the `displayName` and `formattedAddress` fields, adds a marker\nto the map, and logs some data to the console. \n\nTypeScript \n\n```typescript\nasync function getPlaceDetails() {\n const { Place } = await google.maps.importLibrary(\"places\") as google.maps.PlacesLibrary;\n const { AdvancedMarkerElement } = await google.maps.importLibrary(\"marker\") as google.maps.MarkerLibrary;\n // Use place ID to create a new Place instance.\n const place = new Place({\n id: 'ChIJN5Nz71W3j4ARhx5bwpTQEGg',\n requestedLanguage: 'en', // optional\n });\n\n // Call fetchFields, passing the desired data fields.\n await place.fetchFields({ fields: ['displayName', 'formattedAddress', 'location'] });\n\n // Log the result\n console.log(place.displayName);\n console.log(place.formattedAddress);\n\n // Add an Advanced Marker\n const marker = new AdvancedMarkerElement({\n map,\n position: place.location,\n title: place.displayName,\n });\n}https://github.com/googlemaps-samples/js-api-samples/blob/7a62b25fe463fc0fd06949fcd1029aecc8b8504b/dist/samples/place-class/docs/index.ts#L26-L48\n```\n| **Note:** Read the [guide](/maps/documentation/javascript/using-typescript) on using TypeScript and Google Maps.\n\nJavaScript \n\n```javascript\nasync function getPlaceDetails() {\n const { Place } = await google.maps.importLibrary(\"places\");\n const { AdvancedMarkerElement } = await google.maps.importLibrary(\"marker\");\n // Use place ID to create a new Place instance.\n const place = new Place({\n id: 'ChIJN5Nz71W3j4ARhx5bwpTQEGg',\n requestedLanguage: 'en', // optional\n });\n // Call fetchFields, passing the desired data fields.\n await place.fetchFields({ fields: ['displayName', 'formattedAddress', 'location'] });\n // Log the result\n console.log(place.displayName);\n console.log(place.formattedAddress);\n // Add an Advanced Marker\n const marker = new AdvancedMarkerElement({\n map,\n position: place.location,\n title: place.displayName,\n });\n}https://github.com/googlemaps-samples/js-api-samples/blob/7a62b25fe463fc0fd06949fcd1029aecc8b8504b/dist/samples/place-class/docs/index.js#L22-L41\n```\nNote that `Map` and `Place` have been declared prior to this function: \n\n```javascript\nconst { Map } = await google.maps.importLibrary(\"maps\");\nconst { Place } = await google.maps.importLibrary(\"places\");\n```\n[See the complete example](/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/place-class)"]]
