Place Search

AI-generated

Summary

Searches Brave’s local place search endpoint for points of interest in an area, optionally filtering by a text query. Returns the API response body for each input item.

Inputs

  • Query — Optional text describing the places to find. Leave empty to request general points of interest for the specified area.
  • Location — Plain-text area to search, such as “tokyo japan”. Use this or provide both Latitude and Longitude.
  • Latitude and Longitude — Coordinates in decimal degrees. Provide both together as an alternative to Location.
  • Count — Maximum number of results to request, from 1 to 50; defaults to 20.
  • Additional Parameters — Optional settings: Radius (meters) biases results toward the supplied coordinates but is not a strict boundary; Country scopes the search; Search Language and User Interface Language set response language preferences; Units chooses metric or imperial distance values; Safe Search sets the filtering level; Spellcheck controls query spellchecking; Geolocation supplies a user position as latitude x longitude for computing result distances. Defaults include country US, search language en, UI language en-US, metric units, strict Safe Search, and spellcheck enabled.

Output shape

A list of items, each containing the Brave API response body as JSON.

The request is made once per input item. Blank query, location, and coordinate values are omitted; coordinates are sent only when both are provided. A radius of 0 is omitted. Errors stop execution unless Continue On Fail is enabled, in which case the failed input item's JSON and error are returned.
