Place Detail API

/apis/O2O/entity/{eLoc}

MapmyIndia eloc is a simple, standardized and precise pan-India digital address system. Every location has been assigned a unique digital address or an eLoc. Place Detail API can be used to extract the details of a place with the help of its eLoc i.e. a 6 digit code or a placeid. This APIs follow OAuth2 based security. To know more on how to create your authorization tokens, please use our authorization token URL. More details available here. The API leverages OAuth 2.0 based security. Hence, the developer would need to send a request for access token using their clientid and clientsecret to the OAuth API. Once validated from the OAuth API, the accesstoken and the tokentype need to be sent as Authorization header with the value: "{tokentype} {accesstoken}”. Authorization : tokentype accesstoken.

Build your request in eight languages

Change source-backed examples once, validate required inputs, and copy the synchronized cURL, JavaScript, Python, Java, C#, Go, PHP, or Ruby request. Credentials remain environment references, and this page never sends a provider request.

How fixtures work
Generated from your inputs
curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://explore.mapmyindia.com/apis/O2O/entity/MMI000' \
  --header "Accept: application/json" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer ${MAPPLS_ACCESS_TOKEN}"

Credential-safe by constructionSet MAPPLS_ACCESS_TOKEN only in your trusted runtime. Code generation stays local. Sandbox execution sends only bounded fixture inputs to this developer platform and never reads a credential or calls Mappls.

Five language quickstarts

Send a production-shaped request

Examples use environment-backed access tokens, explicit timeouts where supported, status checks, and JSON bodies derived from the source schema. Replace sample identifiers and coordinates with values from your application.

Operate it safely

request-response

This operation is evaluated independently from the request. Cache and retry according to its documented semantics.

Keep credentials and raw tokens out of source, client bundles, prompts, and logs.Record the operation ID, status, latency, retry count, and source contract version in traces.Classify 4xx responses before retrying; back off and add jitter for retryable 5xx or transport failures.Cache only when request inputs, authorization scope, and freshness requirements permit it.
