search-place-index-for-suggestions

Description

Generates suggestions for addresses and points of interest based on partial or misspelled free-form text. This operation is also known as autocomplete, autosuggest, or fuzzy matching.

Optional parameters let you narrow your search results by bounding box or country, or bias your search toward a specific position on the globe.

Note

You can search for suggested place names near a specified position by using BiasPosition , or filter results within a bounding box by using FilterBBox . These parameters are mutually exclusive; using both BiasPosition and FilterBBox in the same command returns an error.

Options

--index-name (string)

The name of the place index resource you want to use for the search.

--text (string)

The free-form partial text to use to generate place suggestions. For example, eiffel tow .

--bias-position (list)

An optional parameter that indicates a preference for place suggestions that are closer to a specified position.

If provided, this parameter must contain a pair of numbers. The first number represents the X coordinate, or longitude; the second number represents the Y coordinate, or latitude.

For example, [-123.1174, 49.2847] represents the position with longitude -123.1174 and latitude 49.2847 .

Note

BiasPosition and FilterBBox are mutually exclusive. Specifying both options results in an error.

(double)

Syntax:

double double ...

--filter-b-box (list)

An optional parameter that limits the search results by returning only suggestions within a specified bounding box.

If provided, this parameter must contain a total of four consecutive numbers in two pairs. The first pair of numbers represents the X and Y coordinates (longitude and latitude, respectively) of the southwest corner of the bounding box; the second pair of numbers represents the X and Y coordinates (longitude and latitude, respectively) of the northeast corner of the bounding box.

For example, [-12.7935, -37.4835, -12.0684, -36.9542] represents a bounding box where the southwest corner has longitude -12.7935 and latitude -37.4835 , and the northeast corner has longitude -12.0684 and latitude -36.9542 .

Note

FilterBBox and BiasPosition are mutually exclusive. Specifying both options results in an error.

(double)

Syntax:

double double ...

--filter-countries (list)

An optional parameter that limits the search results by returning only suggestions within the provided list of countries.

• Use the ISO 3166 3-digit country code. For example, Australia uses three upper-case characters: AUS .

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--max-results (integer)

An optional parameter. The maximum number of results returned per request.

The default: 5

--language (string)

The preferred language used to return results. The value must be a valid BCP 47 language tag, for example, en for English.

This setting affects the languages used in the results. If no language is specified, or not supported for a particular result, the partner automatically chooses a language for the result.

For an example, we’ll use the Greek language. You search for Athens, Gr to get suggestions with the language parameter set to en . The results found will most likely be returned as Athens, Greece .

If you set the language parameter to el , for Greek, then the result found will more likely be returned as Αθήνα, Ελλάδα .

If the data provider does not have a value for Greek, the result will be in a language that the provider does support.

--filter-categories (list)

A list of one or more Amazon Location categories to filter the returned places. If you include more than one category, the results will include results that match any of the categories listed.

For more information about using categories, including a list of Amazon Location categories, see Categories and filtering , in the Amazon Location Service Developer Guide .

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--key (string)

The optional API key to authorize the 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)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--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.

• Grab
• Here

For more information about data providers, see Amazon Location Service data providers .
