I cannot seem to find one anywhere. Google Place ID docs and search.
Tried search for "Earth", "Planet Earth", "Terra", and anything else I could think of.

I'm trying to use youtube data search and video API in my web application to display top view-counted videos related with several keywords. I'm planing to use totally two calls: the first call get id list with search API, and the second call get details for the ids hit on the first call, with video API.
My question is with regard to search API. Based on my trial and error, If I input multiple keyword with space separation in the parameter q for search API, it's looks behaves as AND condition it's not same as common behavior such as google. To search with multiple keywords with OR condition, As far as I tried, it's looks working if I Include the OR between keywords, but I would like to confirm my assumption correct, officially if possible.
I should be able to find this kind of specification in the official documentation, but finally I have no luck. It's very helpful if you could share these links if exists or give me the official answer.
By the way, it is my first post to stackoverflow. If there is missing point of my question, please kindly advice.
I would like to create an application to show new restaurants/pubs in my city.
I didn't find any easy option to achieve that such as "added today", "show by the date". The only one idea I find is to use query:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query=restaurants+in+Poznań
unfortunately this is expensive solution and not effective - searching in all data every few days to find something new.
Do you know maybe any better idea to find those data?
When searching for a specific place in the Google Places API I found out that Google delivers results far away from the restriction I sent with.
For example:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/findplacefromtext/json?key=<mykey>&inputtype=textquery&input=<PlaceQuery>&fields=name,geometry&locationbias=circle:200#<lat>,<lng>
In this query above I tried to find a place in a specific circle (200 metres) around a point lat lng. (Removed for this post)
Google does it's work but when I enter a place to search for which is definitely not in the region I specified it still finds the place.
Did I misunderstood something with this type of search query? Or is it a mistake at googles end?
Is it possible to implement "people who searched for this, also searched for" feature with elasticsearch? Just like what we often see in the search result at the bottom of Google search. If possible, how can we achieve it?
There is this elasticsearch+Mahout based plugin available for implementing your solution. It may help you

I would like to use the Google custom search API for searching only in discussions like using the query string &tbm=dsc.
Unfortunately there is no tbm parameter given in the API documentation.
Is it not possible to limit the search results to discussions only?
No, there is currently not a way to do the discussion search with CSE/GSS. The only special search is image which is documented in the API reference. You could use Labels and Refinements to limit your search to specific sites and/or patterns.
Limiting search results for Google Custom Search to only discussion websites is not possible. Just in case, remember that Google Custom Search is for searching over one website or a collection of websites. If your collection is all discussion sites, well, that doesn't seem to be the purpose of Google Custom Search. However, there may be some useful workarounds/solutions.
Workaround 0
Find or generate a collection of discussion sites you're interest in and create a custom search based on that. This would accomplish (almost) the same results you are after.
Workaround 1
You might be able to perform a redirection with refinement labels. This example redirects to a Google Scholar search. You might be able to accomplish the same result using &tbm=dsc.
