You guessed right - the Address Input behaves as you suggested. It normalises the addresses into a canonical form. In the case of choosing the address “Miami, Florida, USA” from the list of auto-suggestions, the address will be normalised to “Miami, FL, USA”. This is how it will appear in the box, and this is the value that will be used if the address is submitted to a dataset, or accessed via Corvid API.
In any case, I will add the Place ID feature request to our backlog.
@patrick We’ve released fixes to the Address Input. Could you please check again and let me know if your issue still persists?
If it does, could you please share your website?

@eyalc The issue is still happening. Also, one other thing I noticed is that the setting doesn’t show on the address input for incorrect address format. Here is the page where it is at https://www.raisingourtribe.org/submit-resource
@eyalc The domain is verified. I tried with and without the verification and still not working. I don’t see any type of error being logged. Google is also showing that there have been no requests to the API key that I put in the address input.
On the left-hand side of the page I have your Address Input element but whenever I click on an item from the drop-down, nothing happens. I get the following error in my console:
This API project is not authorized to use this API. For more information on authentication and Google Maps JavaScript API services please see: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/get-api-key
(I do not have any restrictions on my API Key)
However I don’t think its an issue with my API key because I use the same API Key on my custom made Address Input Element on the right hand side of the page and its working well. Check the console logs on the page.
Another Concern:
When the above mentioned error is shown in the console, when you hover over the hyperlinked text as shown in the below image it is displaying my API key
@patrick It seems that your Address Input is working now. Am I missing something?
I guess you have removed domain verification, right?
Anything else you had to do to make it work? Add certain permissions?
Unlike your custom input, the Address Input makes additional API calls to Google to get Geocoding and other information about the address.
Based on the error you’re receiving, it seems that your API Key does not have all the required permissions, namely Geocoding. May I ask you to head over to the Google Cloud Platform dashboard and make sure you have Geocoding API listed among your APIs?
Also, please make sure that under Credentials you have no restriction over the Geocoding API.
BTW, did you happen to click on the “Find out how” link in the Connect Google Maps panel?
It takes you to an article with instructions on how to connect your API key, and mentions, among other things, that you should "Make sure to select theMaps,Places, andGeocodingAPIs" .
If this article isn’t discoverable, or isn’t clear enough, then I’d like to update it. Have you come across it?
@naimibaby Looks like a mistake actually. Seems like we’re populating the dropdown with the wrong list of languages
Checking and getting back to you.
Thanks!
@eyalc I have not seen it work yet and I have been trying it a lot every day (I have been testing back end stuff after the form is submitted). There seems to be api requests from the google cloud stats but none have been from me. It has not shown any requests or errors while I am using it so maybe it just isn’t calling the api when I use it?
How long are we expected to wait? I kinda took on a project based on this functionality coming out in to the open now it’s closed. It worked fine for me
?
