Google Places API JSon Data
 
Hello All,

I am trying to retrieve data from Google's Places API but I only seem to receive partial data using the examples provided:

Code:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/radarsearch/json?location=48.859294,2.347589&radius=5000&types=food|cafe&sensor=false&key=MyAPIKey

This is the end part of the result, it does not seem to contain the 'Address' or the 'Name' in the data, what could I be missing?:

Code:
      {
        "geometry" : {
            "location" : {
              "lat" : 48.854067,
              "lng" : 2.336876
            }
        },
        "id" : "cbf69cd8c0c5874e65826804ca32804cc05554a6",
        "reference" : "CnRpAAAASJHvjkWfbiNVXPiSM1LZ9W0bUsNkpNg8MQxSDMnoVcWEpnaTVQQ13ACQe70uARaag9ROrYF7CO64gz2K7l3vAntax4HCQ970DznSz3kRuYC1eMjy8UY6oqyXCjUQA4wdaJNCipmlot4VweOmsdnQzhIQxjGWlwDvtGVV_mryMBpHDBoUjNOjbu4s3beu-RLTfUUAClgNWZU"
      },
      {
        "geometry" : {
            "location" : {
              "lat" : 48.859226,
              "lng" : 2.343194
            }
        },

      },
      {

            "location" : {
              "lat" : 48.865602,
              "lng" : 2.327369
            }
        },

      },
      {

            "location" : {
              "lat" : 48.854614,
              "lng" : 2.332805
            }
        },

      }
  ],
  "status" : "OK"
}

Every example that I see online appears to retrieve information like this:

Code:
{
  "html_attributions" : [],
  "results" : [
      {
        "geometry" : {
            "location" : {
              "lat" : 33.7862590,
              "lng" : -117.8531270
            }
        },

        "types" : [ "restaurant", "food", "establishment" ],
        "vicinity" : "190 S Glassell St # B, Orange"
      }
      ]
}
Many thanks for your help.

I would suggest looking at the updated Google Places API Docs: https://developers.google.com/places...SearchRequests

The examples now show that the results returned include a field called "formatted_address":

"results" : [
{
"formatted_address" : "529 Kent Street, Sydney NSW, Australia",
"geometry" : {
"location" : {
"lat" : -33.8750460,
"lng" : 151.2052720
}
},
"icon" : "http://maps.gstatic.com/mapfiles/place_api/icons/restaurant-71.png",
"id" : "827f1ac561d72ec25897df088199315f7cbbc8ed",
"name" : "Tetsuya's",
"rating" : 4.30,
"reference" : "CnRmAAAAmmm3dlSVT3E7rIvwQ0lHBA4sayvxWEc4nZaXSSjRtfKRGoYnfr3d5AvQGk4e0u3oOErXsIJwtd3Wck1Onyw6pCzr8sw W4E7dZ6wP4dV6AsXPvodwdVyqHgyGE_K8DqSp5McW_nFcci_-1jXb5Phv-RIQTzv5BjIGS0ufgTslfC6dqBoU7tw8NKUDHg28bPJlL0vGVWVgbTg",
