# TripAdvisor Place API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/tripadvisor/place)

> Resolves any TripAdvisor place URL - hotel, restaurant, or attraction - into a unified Place: name, category, star rating, total review count, price level, address, phone, coordinates, and images. This is the generic resolver: pass the `url_path` from a /v1/tripadvisor/search result, or any TripAdvisor page URL a user pasted, and get back the resolved place. Use it to confirm which property a `url_path` actually points at before pulling its reviews, because TripAdvisor keys on the numeric id in the path and ignores the slug text, so a stale slug can name a different property than the one it resolves to. A URL that resolves to nothing returns 404 (auto-refunded).

TL;DR: `GET /v1/tripadvisor/place` costs 1 credit per call and returns SocialCrawl's unified JSON schema. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `url_path` | yes | The TripAdvisor `url_path` of the place (from a search result), or a full TripAdvisor page URL. |
