Google Places API integration for Drupal. Important reads:
How it works
This module provides a Google Places field that you can add to your content type(s). This is essentially a text field that just holds onto the Place ID.
Once the Place ID is entered and your node is saved, this module makes a call to the Google Places API to fetch the Place details. When the data is returned from Google, it is cached inside other fields on your content type:
- Address Field
- Geofield
- Telephone
- URL
- Integer
- Taxonomy Term Reference
This allows you to fully utilize the power of these popular fields, alongside Google Places data. Plus it automatically purges the data after a configurable amount of time, that way your site pulls in the latest data from Google.
