Google Places API Details request not returning photos array

Viewed 1510

As stated in the documentation, a "details" request should return a "photos" array, with photo references I should use to get up to 10 place photos.

Why am I not getting the photos array in the result? I have tried with various places.

This is the request url (details of New York):

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/details/json?sensor=false&key=MY_API_KEY&reference=CkQzAAAAPElvIu2p9kjSSszAkpyP75LJ_AJUcKDZAifsRJw7_RFnSQ0cR2fjfa7MxQsvU0ct-fjUu6H7r7j4torvd0p5YhIQxyAtJFyY_kUH03Yomxt67BoUQDFZd2WonLfujVVzlUEm5V5Eh4Q

And this is the result:
