The Google Places API has not been deprecated and is still available for use.
The Google Places API is a web service that allows developers to search for places and get information about them, such as their names, addresses, and types. The API is available through the Google Maps Platform and can be used to build applications that need to access place data.
It is important to note that some features of the Google Places API may have changed or been deprecated over time, and it is always a good idea to check the documentation and terms of service for the latest information.
You can find more information about the Google Places API on the Google Maps Platform website (https://developers.google.com/maps/places).
