Usage

For complete documentation of this library, see Use the Region Lookup API in the Google Maps Platform documentation.

Below is a simple example calling the lookupRegion method of the service.

import { 
  lookupRegion, 
  LookupRegionRequestData, 
  LookupRegionResponseData, 
  LookupRegionResponse, 
  RegionIdentifier 
} from "@googlemaps/region-lookup";

const headers = {
    "X-Goog-Api-Key": "YOUR API KEY",
  };

const data: LookupRegionRequestData = {
  identifiers: [
    {
      place: "newark",
      place_type: "locality" as const,
      region_code: "us",
      language: "en",
    },
  ],
};

try {
  const response: LookupRegionResponse = await lookupRegion({ headers, data });
  console.log(response.data);
} catch (e) {
  console.log(e.response);
  throw e;
}

See the reference documentation for more information on the request and response interfaces.
