Frequently asked questions
The Details API is a new API for Mapbox customers to access rich location data for Addresses, POIs, Places, and Boundaries.
Developers need the Details API to provide contextual information for their map experience. For example, a navigation app displays open hours, and a food ordering app displays restaurant pictures. Customers can also use the Details API to make follow-up looks for any Mapbox ID they have saved before; for example, a navigation app retrieves the latest venue information for a restaurant that has been saved to user favorites.
Details API offers four attribute sets: Basic, Photos, Visit, Venue, each providing different levels of detail to meet your application needs.
The Basic set covers essential information about a location, including name, address, and coordinates. The Photos set provides location pictures, while the Visit set includes contact and visitation information such as phone numbers and operating hours. Additional detailed metadata like popularity, ratings, and parking information is provided in the Venue set.
Details API integrates seamlessly with other Mapbox services using the same location ID, making it easy to combine services like the Search Box API, Geocoding API, and Boundaries for data retrieval.
Our location data is continuously updated through a combination of public and private sources, expert reviews, crowdsourced corrections, and predictive machine learning models, ensuring high accuracy and relevance.
