The user of an application on a mobile device is at Avenue 18 Novembre in Marrakech, Morocco and would like to find an ATM.

endpoint with the user's current location as the location context and the place category that covers ATMs (atm-bank-exchange
) to reduce the number of response items. We use an explicit location context (the parameter at
) and we name the search category (the type of place to find) through the parameter named cat
