Can you create a Geolocator View in Portal?

[MBocek]

Hello!

My team has set up StreetMap Premium as a locator for our 11.4 portal. Its working, but we are looking to restrict it to one state to improve performance. I've found articles about locator views for ArcGIS Online:

How To: Limit Geocoding Results to a Specific Area

Customize your Geocoding experience with Locator Views

Is there a similar option for Enterprise?

Hi @MBocek, I haven't tried yet, but I believe you can based on this document https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/11.4/use/create-locator.htm#:~:text=Create%20a%20locator%20v....

Hope this answers your question!

Hello Lenna,

Thank you for the reply! It doesn't look like I can because we use web-tier authentication, boo.

My organization is in 11.3 and as per the documentation, it should be possible to create locator views: https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/11.3/use/create-locator.htm

However, when I follow the instructions in the documentation and got to Add Item > Locators, there is no option to create a view, just to add a service by URL. Has anyone else run into this?

FYI, we had to configure the ArcGIS World Geocoding Service for ArcGIS Enterprise (not simply add it as a locator in the Utility Service). I had misunderstood the documentation before. Once we added it via ArcGIS Online, we were able to add a custom Locator view for our organization. 

See instructions at https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/administer/windows/configure-portal-to-geocode-addres...

Do you know if that workflow could be replicated with StreetMap Premium? We do not want to open credit usage to our whole organization.
