Field of Type "Geographic Address" and Airports

Need help
1

Hi there,

I have a question when a field is defined as type “Geographic Address”.

My question is specific to airports.

When the user inputs a value (airport), bubble fetches and stores the complete address. This is working great!

You can view this on the Bubble open app:

and choose “Preview”.

You can see the complete address for JFK Airport in New York.

–> John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), Queens, NY 11430, USA

However, I want to show ONLY the airport to the user.

I am not sure what address parameter I should choose.

As you can see from the screenshot, I tried all the possibilities (room number, floor, street, etc) but none is getting only the airport name.

I’m not sure if this a bubble limitation or my lack of knowledge.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I kind of found a workaround in using geonames’ api:

You have to sign up for an account and then enable your user to use the api:
