autocomplete

Description

Autocomplete completes potential places and addresses as the user types, based on the partial input. The API enhances the efficiency and accuracy of address by completing query based on a few entered keystrokes. It helps you by completing partial queries with valid address completion. Also, the API supports the filtering of results based on geographic location, country, or specific place types, and can be tailored using optional parameters like language and political views.

--max-results (integer)

An optional limit for the number of results returned in a single call.

--bias-position (list)

The position in longitude and latitude that the results should be close to. Typically, place results returned are ranked higher the closer they are to this position. Stored in [lng, lat] and in the WSG84 format.

Note

The fields BiasPosition , FilterBoundingBox , and FilterCircle are mutually exclusive.

(double)

Syntax:

double double ...

--filter (structure)

Center -> (list)

The center position, in longitude and latitude, of the FilterCircle .

(double)

Radius -> (long)

  "Circle": {
    "Center": [double, ...],
    "Radius": long
  },
  "IncludeCountries": ["string", ...],
  "IncludePlaceTypes": ["Locality"|"PostalCode", ...]
}

--postal-code-mode (string)

The PostalCodeMode affects how postal code results are returned. If a postal code spans multiple localities and this value is empty, partial district or locality information may be returned under a single postal code result entry. If it’s populated with the value EnumerateSpannedLocalities , all cities in that postal code are returned.

Possible values:

  • MergeAllSpannedLocalities
  • EnumerateSpannedLocalities

--additional-features (list)

The following political views are currently supported:

--intended-use (string)

Indicates if the results will be stored. Defaults to SingleUse , if left empty.

Possible values:

  • SingleUse

--key (string)

Optional: The API key to be used for authorization. Either an API key or valid SigV4 signature must be provided when making a request.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table
  • yaml
  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64
  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
