Hi All,

I am geocoding a bunch of addresses via locator.addressesToLocations and receiving the exception "Unexpected token '<', \"<!DOCTYPE \"... is not valid JSON" in return, the geocoding service I am using is the World server i.e. https://geocode-api.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer.

However if I run the other method addressToLocations for single address then it is working fine.  I am also using my apiKey as well. Any help provided will be appreciated.

Do you have a code sample, like with codepen or stackblitz, or github? Are you setting the esri/config apiKey? The geocode-api service requires an api key used as a token in the ArcGIS Map SDK for JS.

            const map = new Map({

            const view = new MapView({

            const manyaddresses = [{

            }];

            const params = {
                addresses: manyaddresses,
                outFields: ["*"]
            };


            const collection = [];

            locator.addressesToLocations(locatorUrl, params).then((res) => {
                // prints the total count to the console
                console.log(res);

        });
