This type-ahead functionality helps users find what they are looking for more easily, without requiring them to fully specify their search term. Typically, the user starts typing and a drop-down list appears where they can choose the term from the list below. To build a query with autocomplete, you need [a free, API developer key](https://mapzen.com/developers) and a `text` parameter, representing what a user has typed into your application so far. Optionally, you can specify a geographic point where the search is focused, this will allow users to see more local places in the results.
