```http
GET | POST /v1/yandex/places
```

Send parameters as a query string with `GET`, or as a JSON body with `POST`. Both are equivalent.

## Request

```bash tab="cURL"
curl -G "https://gateway.apinoa.com/v1/yandex/places" \
  --data-urlencode "q=кафе" \
  --data-urlencode "near=Москва" \
  --data-urlencode "limit=5" \
  -H "x-api-key: $APINOA_API_KEY"
```

```js tab="JavaScript"
const params = new URLSearchParams({ q: "кафе", near: "Москва", limit: "5" });
const res = await fetch(`https://gateway.apinoa.com/v1/yandex/places?${params}`, {
  headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APINOA_API_KEY },
});
const { success, data, error } = await res.json();
```

```python tab="Python"
import os

import requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://gateway.apinoa.com/v1/yandex/places",
    params={"q": "кафе", "near": "Москва", "limit": "5"},
    headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APINOA_API_KEY"]},
)
body = res.json()
```

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `cursor` | string |  | The previous page's `cursor`. Pass it alone for the next page. |
| `limit` | integer 1–100 |  | Results wanted (default 20, at most 100). More than one page is charged per page. |
| `location` | string |  | Search as if from this point: `lat,lng`. |
| `near` | string |  | Search around this place name, or a `lat,lng` point. |
| `q` | string |  | The query, search operators included. |
| `type` | enum |  | The map's list of places (the only one Yandex has). `maps` |

The same parameters, and every response type, are in the OpenAPI document: https://apinoa.com/openapi.json

## Response

Returns [`PlacesPage`](/docs/api-reference/serp/response-schema#placespage) in `data`. A real response, shortened: arrays keep their first entries and long text is cut.

## Errors

| Status | Code | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 400 | `INVALID_CURSOR` | The `cursor` is not one this operation returned. Start again without it. |
| 400 | `INVALID_PARAMS` | A parameter is missing, unknown or out of range, or the engine does not take it. The message names it. |
| 401 | `UNAUTHORIZED` | The `x-api-key` header is missing, or the key is revoked or unknown. |
| 402 | `INSUFFICIENT_BALANCE` | The balance does not cover this call. Top up in the dashboard. |
| 429 | `MARKETPLACE_SATURATED` | Too many concurrent calls. Retry after the `Retry-After` seconds. |
| 502 | `UPSTREAM_ERROR` | The engine answered with something unusable. Retry with backoff. |
| 503 | `SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE` | A temporary failure. Retry with backoff. |

Every code is listed in [Errors](/docs/errors). Failed calls are not billed.

## Pricing

**Price** $0.0012 per call, plus $0.0012 for each extra call it makes — at most 3 more, so $0.0048 in total. [List price](https://apinoa.com/en/pricing); the rate steps down above 1,000 calls a day.

## Notes

- Search around a place name with `near`, or a point with `location` (`lat,lng`).
- `limit` above one page reads further pages, one unit each.
