Query flow

Both Places API Suggest Entrypoint and Autosuggest Service are meant to support end users with suggestions while they are formulating a textual one box query. Autosuggest query term completion capability is per default switched-off. Applications needing suggestions for the last token entered by end-users must set the termsLimit query parameter to the desired maximum number. Autosuggest service will return suggested terms upt to that limit (termsLimit maximum is 10).

Note that GS7 suggested query terms are returned with highlighting information to help end-users to recognize their query.
