I’ve been using the Google Maps Search endpoint (/google-maps-search) to retrieve popular_times data for places, and it has been working reliably until recently.
As of the last few days, the popular_times field is no longer being returned in the API response for any place I query. The rest of the response (place name, address, etc.) comes back fine it’s specifically the popular_times array that is missing entirely.
Has something changed with how popular_times data is sourced or returned? Is this a known issue, or has there been a change to the API that requires a different parameter or endpoint to get this data?
