- Get options to review without leaving the project flow.

Retrieve nearby places v3
The getnearbyplaces endpoint retrieves a list of places near a specified location, primarily supporting check-in use cases and local discovery. it returns points of interest (pois) including lower quality results not found in the standard place search, enhancing location-based experiences with additional data like photos, reviews, and tips. this endpoint is ideal for applications seeking to provide users with a comprehensive view of their surroundings, including less prominent or newer locations. while it offers a broader range of results, it may sacrifice some precision compared to more focused search endpoints. use this when you want to offer users a diverse array of nearby options, particularly for social check-in features or exploratory local recommendations.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
