## Response

Successful output is returned in `results[0].data`.

Raw platform output is intentionally open-ended and may evolve with the upstream source.

### Illustrative sample output

This example shows one response. Values and optional fields vary with the data available.

```json
{
  "count": 1,
  "fetched_at": "2026-09-24T08:10:32Z",
  "query": "Connaught Place",
  "suggestions": [
    {
      "entity_name": "Connaught Place, New Delhi, Delhi, India",
      "is_order_location": true,
      "latitude": 28.6304203,
      "location_type": "geocode",
      "longitude": 77.2177216,
      "subtitle": "New Delhi, Delhi, India",
      "title": "Connaught Place"
    }
  ]
}
```
### Illustrative output fields

Derived from the sample above for orientation only. These fields are not a fixed response schema.

| Path | Observed type | Example |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `count` | `integer` | 1 |
| `fetched_at` | `string` | 2026-09-24T08:10:32Z |
| `query` | `string` | Connaught Place |
| `suggestions` | `array` | 1 items |
| `suggestions` | `array` | 1 items |

## Execution behavior

A `200` response completed inline. A `202` response was queued; poll `GET /jobs/{id}` until the job reaches `completed` or `failed`. Use an `Idempotency-Key` when retrying must not create a duplicate logical job.
