Google Maps API TOS don’t allow to store in a database any other information than the ID or Reference of a place. So, should we make a new API query every time we need a detail information such as city or country?
If for example I use the API to get the current location of a user through an autocomplete field. I only store the ID or reference? I can not store the country, the city in order to then make queries in my database to know all users from a city or country?
You can definitely “store” the extra country/city information for the current session. That’s not what Google’s terms of service are trying to prevent. They just don’t want you to store their data in a database permanently.
