The Autocomplete API is a variant of the Search API that returns place predictions in response to an HTTP request. The request specifies a textual search string and optional geographic bounds. The service can be used to provide autocomplete functionality for text-based geographic searches, by returning places such as businesses, addresses and points of interest as a user types. The Autocomplete API can match on full words as well as substrings. Applications can therefore send queries as the user types, to provide on-the-fly place predictions.

var.q <- 'Empire state' # character | Address to geocode
var.normalizecity <- 1 # integer | For responses with no city value in the address section, the next available element in this order - city_district, locality, town, borough, municipality, village, hamlet, quarter, neighbourhood - from the address section will be normalized to city. Defaults to 1 for SDKs.
var.limit <- 10 # integer | Limit the number of returned results. Default is 10.
var.viewbox <- '-132.84908,47.69382,-70.44674,30.82531' # character | The preferred area to find search results. To restrict results to those within the viewbox, use along with the bounded option. Tuple of 4 floats. Any two corner points of the box - `max_lon,max_lat,min_lon,min_lat` or `min_lon,min_lat,max_lon,max_lat` - are accepted in any order as long as they span a real box.
var.bounded <- 1 # integer | Restrict the results to only items contained with the viewbox
var.countrycodes <- 'us' # character | Limit search to a list of countries.
var.accept.language <- 'en' # character | Preferred language order for showing search results, overrides the value specified in the Accept-Language HTTP header. Defaults to en. To use native language for the response when available, use accept-language=native
var.tag <- 'place' # character | Restricts the autocomplete search results to elements of specific OSM class and type. Example - To restrict results to only class place and type city: tag=place:city, To restrict the results to all of OSM class place: tag=place
