  3. "@googlemaps/google-maps-services-js": "3.3.28"

Code example

const foundplace = await GoogleMapsClient.findPlaceFromText({
                params: {
                    inputtype: 'textquery',
                    input: query.search_term,
                    key: GOOGLE_API_KEY,
                    fields: ['url'],
                }
            })

Stack trace

data: {
      candidates: [],
      error_message: "Error while parsing 'fields' parameter: Unsupported field name 'url'. ",
      status: 'INVALID_REQUEST'
    }

Also as a side note. The documentation on that page says photo field is part of basic fields type. However the table to indicate all the available fields shows photos as plural. Using photo or photos still returns photos successfully.
