Scrappa's GET /api/gratka/location-autocomplete finds Polish places by the start of a name and returns what the search endpoint needs.
What you get
Each location has id, name, description, kind (for example miasto for a city or dzielnica for a district), region, city and slug. For cities and districts, search_params holds the exact location and district values to send to the search endpoint. Other kinds, such as counties, have slug and search_params as null.
Notes
At least 2 characters are needed. Results are cached for ten minutes.

Errors
Handle these documented responses before retrying or showing customer-facing failures.
Validation Error
A query parameter is missing, unknown or unusable. Unknown parameters are rejected, never ignored. Non-billable.
{
"errors": {
"sort": [
"The selected sort is invalid."
]
},
"message": "The selected sort is invalid."
}Upstream Unavailable
Gratka could not be reached after retries, answered with an error, or returned a page without the expected data (`upstream_unavailable`, `upstream_blocked`, `upstream_rejected`, `parser_drift`). Retryable and never billed. Clients are never rate limited.
{
"meta": {
"attempts": 2,
"billable": false,
"retryable": true,
"endpoint_family": "location"
},
"error": {
"code": "upstream_unavailable",
"message": "Gratka is temporarily unavailable. Please retry."
},
"success": false
