How to get PlaceID from name, or lat, long in Android?

This my code:

Geocoder geocoder = new Geocoder(this, Locale.getDefault());
    List<Address> addresses = geocoder.getFromLocationName(text, 10);
    test.clear();
    for (int i = 0; i < addresses.size(); i++) {
        Address address = addresses.get(i);
        for (int j=0;j<address.getMaxAddressLineIndex();j++) {
            test.add(address.getAddressLine(j) + ", " + address.getCountryName());
//                address.getLatitude();
//                address.getLatitude();
            }
        }

But I can't find something like address.getPlaceID().

Maybe I use another API get PlaceID from name, or lat, long from above code. Thanks!

Look at this docs. You will get the lat,long,name for the Address and then call this below google api

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=-33.8670522,151.1957362&radius=500&types=food&name=cruise&key=YOUR_API_KEY

You will get a response like this

{
  "html_attributions" : [],
  "results" : [
    {
      "geometry" : {
        "location" : {
          "lat" : -33.870775,
          "lng" : 151.199025
        }
      },
      ...
      "place_id" : "ChIJrTLr-GyuEmsRBfy61i59si0",
      ...
    }
  ],
  "status" : "OK"
}

For there you will get the place-id.

Note: Please enable the GeoLocation Api from Google Developer Console otherwise it return the error msg :This API project is not authorized to use this API.

You also can use direct search instead of nearbysearch https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=40.714224,-73.961452&key=YOUR_API_KEY

Look at Getting Started with Geocoding

Both of the proposed ways cost money and I think peoples should mention it. We have the -$200 from the Google, but its all depends from how much users you have and how frequent you need to use the geocode. 60k requests per month to the geocoder - easy $300 only for to use the geocode https API :

Nov 1 – 30, 2018 Geocoding API Geocoding: 6073 Counts - $30.38

Dont filter what you need in the responses, like we have in the requests from other posts? Expect way more:

Nov 1 – 30, 2018 Places API Places Details: 2389 Counts $40.61

Nov 1 – 30, 2018 Places API Contact Data: 2385 Counts $7.17

Nov 1 – 30, 2018 Places API Atmosphere Data: 2385 Counts $11.95

I do recommend to use get the Place Id like this. It would be better than call the API directly. I stumble for this issue all day. so I hope that it would be help. who're finding the way out to get place ID from your current location. for android

Kotlin

val mPlaceDetectionClient = Places.getPlaceDetectionClient(this.context!!)  
val placeResult =  mPlaceDetectionClient.getCurrentPlace(null) 
placeResult.addOnCompleteListener(object : OnCompleteListener<PlaceLikelihoodBufferResponse>{
    override fun onComplete(p0: Task<PlaceLikelihoodBufferResponse>) {
        val likelyPlaces = p0.result
        if(likelyPlaces.any()){
            // get the place ID from code below
            placeId = likelyPlaces[0].place.id  }
    }

})

or if who are implementing or developing on another language such a java. you can implement your code according to a reference below.
