Ola Maps Place Details - Advanced

Advanced Place Details uses the same place ID as the standard Place Details endpoint, but returns a broader attribute set for building rich place pages and listings. Expect core facts—addresses, geometry, and categories—alongside deeper POI-oriented data where available, such as editorial or user-facing ratings, photo references, and more complete operational fields than the basic details call alone.

Use this endpoint when your product needs a full place profile after search or autocomplete: store or venue detail screens, photo galleries and thumbnails, trust signals like ratings, richer scheduling context (for example structured or extended hours), and marketing-style cards that go beyond “name plus map pin.” Prefer standard Place Details when you only need verification, routing inputs, or lightweight confirmation; switch to Advanced when the UI or business logic depends on those extra dimensions.

It reduces extra round-trips and glue code: one call can back a dense detail view while still feeding the same place ID into Directions, delivery zones, or analytics. Pair it with Autocomplete or Text Search for discovery, use basic Place Details for minimal flows to save payload where appropriate, and reserve Advanced for screens where photos, ratings, or extended metadata materially improve conversion or clarity.
