Just a quick one. With the current implementation of a search box set to geographic places, is it possible to limit or constrain the available locations to a smaller vicinity, for example, only locations within a particular country? At the moment my search boxes will try to autocomplete to locations all over the world. Just wondering if there was a way to limit this to only my country? Is there an alternative way to achieve this if it is currently not an option for a search box? Cheers ---

One solution = create your own search box by using an input field that’s tied to a RG to display the autocomplete values. Then, for the RG’s, set a filter parameter for the country, or a geographic radius, etc. ---

RG = repeating group. ---

Hi, i cant seem to get this working for an address lookup using google geocoding api. The address pops up but there is a delay and i am struggling to limit the lookup to the state of TN. Can you help? This seems ineffient too when we have a search box… only if the search box can set a radius, we wouldn’t have to go through all this trouble. I love Bubble but these things just make me want to go back to manual programming… wasting a lot of time here. ---

Would be really helpful if you could post some snapshots of how to achieve this ---

I created a related feature request (post linked below). If the request resonates with you, please leave a comment there to help with visibility.

(The first part of this post provides context, second part provides solutions). Please comment if this resonates with you or if you have solutions). Within geographic places search, this goes off of a global list of addresses with no ability to geographically restrict. In doing so, it shows a fair number of low potential matches until a near-complete address is entered. For example, when I type “mount” I see results for Mou…
