Description

As a Backend Developer
I want to integrate with a Places API (e.g., Google Places API, Mapbox) restricted to New Jersey
So that the frontend can fetch validated location suggestions for leads.

Acceptance Criteria

Create an API endpoint:

GET /api/places/search?query=<text>

Calls the external Places API.

Restrict results to New Jersey (USA) only.

Returns formatted address, city, state, zipcode, latitude, longitude.

Handle API failures gracefully:

Return an error response if external API fails.

Provide fallback message to frontend.

Performance & Security:

Use server-side API key securely (not exposed to frontend).

Add request throttling or caching to avoid exceeding API limits.

Test Scenarios
Hitting /api/places/search?query=Newark returns valid New Jersey locations.
Response includes formatted address + lat/long.
Requests outside NJ return no results.
Invalid query or API error returns meaningful error message.
