Parameters

placeId

public abstract Integer getDistanceMeters ()

Returns the straight-line distance between the place being referred to by getPlaceId() and the origin specified in the request.

Will return null if the request did not include an origin, or if the predicted place is of a certain type, such as route. See more details about the distance_meters result field.

public SpannableString getFullText (CharacterStyle matchStyle)

The full text of a place. This is a combination of the primary text and the secondary text.

Example: "Eiffel Tower, Avenue Anatole France, Paris, France"

If you do not wish to highlight matches, you can pass null.
