Find all stores
Make a request to find all the store locations for a Brand in an area.
1Set up you SafeGraph account
Create or log in to your SafeGraph account and create your API Key.
Now, lets include your API key in the request. Copy your API key and paste it below.
import requests
headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'apikey': 'undefined'
}
query = ""
req = requests.post(
'https://api.safegraph.com/v2/graphql',
json={ 'query': query },
headers=headers
)2Setting up your query
The Places API allows you to specify the exact data you want. This means that you can ask for data from Core, Geometry, or Patterns for any location.
We are going to make a request to search for Starbucks locations in San Francisco. Since a search query returns a paginated array of places, we are going to limit the request to the first 5 results starting at the beginning.
Select a few of the fields below data you want to include in the response.
SafeGraph Core Fields (more fields here)
SafeGraph Geometry Fields (more fields here)
SafeGraph Patterns Fields (more fields here)
import requests
headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'apikey': 'undefined'
}
query = """
query {
search(filter: {
brand: "Starbucks"
address: {
city: "San Francisco",
region: "CA",
iso_country_code: "US"
}
}){

}
}
}
}
}
}
"""
req = requests.post(
'https://api.safegraph.com/v2/graphql',
json={
'query': query
},
headers=headers
)3Getting a response
After you send the request, you will receive a JSON response that will reflect the fields you included in the query.

}4Parsing the data
Since the response is a JSON object, you can select the
data object and select the response for the search array.r_json = req.json()
edges = r_json['data']['search']['places']['results']['edges']
print(json.dumps(edges, indent=4, sort_keys=True))Questions?
