Hello, 

Wondering if anybody else is noticing similar behavior with AGOL Experience Builder Search Widget. I configured a search widget to behave similar to the map tools search function, i.e. use Esri World Geolocator to search and pan to common name places and street addresses. 

When my users have utilized the widget, anomalies have occurred with the search results matching improper city names with addresses. Included below is an example of one such result. The result is populating as "Morganton. D.C.," but there is no such place. The result should populate as "Washington, D.C."

Is this result occurring due to improper widget settings, or is this a known geolocator issue?

Hi @CodyPresny ,

I use the same search input in the new Map viewer, giving the same search suggestions. And if you type more in the search input box, it will give the "Washington, D.C." suggestion.

You can create a locator view to limit searches within a specific region, or you can publish your own locator service.
