Get Place Photo

The Get Place Photo activity gives you access to the millions of photos stored in the Places database. When you get place information using a Get Place Details activity, photo references will be returned for relevant photographic content. The Nearby Search and Find Place activities also return a single photo reference per place, when relevant. Using the Get Place Photo activity you can then access the referenced photos and resize the image to the optimal size for your application.
