Hello,

I am creating a Point Address locator and am trying to figure out how I can field map the District field that shows in the Find Address Candidates option in the Geocode Service (see below). I've tried via ArcGIS Pro application (District doesn't show up) and also python (says District is invalid). I've also tried to add a custom output field and it says "Custom output field name 'District' should not be equal to one of the locator output field names."

Is this possible?

@JoshBillings Are you creating a locator for addresses in the USA? If so, not all input locator role fields apply to all countries, but all locator role fields are returned in the output for all countries because the same template is used for all countries and the Create Locator tool only shows the input locator role fields specific to the country the locator supports. What type of information are you trying to display in the District field?

If you are going to add a custom output field it has to be unique and cannot be the same name as an existing output field. You could use "_Distric"t or "Districts" or anything that is not "District" as the custom output field name.
