Is it possible to run of Cid instead of Place ID or both?

Google Place ID can change for a particular listing, so using it as the sole reference mapping point in your database could lead to issues tracking that listing over time.

To address this potential issue you could have a combination input of the Google Place ID and the CID (Customer ID) as the reference mapping points.

Would it be possible to incorporate both Place ID and CID as input values when getting updated information for more accurate mapping?

Hi, you can use both place id and cid in form of start URL:

  • place id URL: https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=<PLACE_TITLE>&query_place_id=<PLACE_ID>
  • or cid URL: https://www.google.com/maps?cid=<PLACE_CID>
