Geocode with ArcGIS processor

Anthony Pépin Updated by Anthony Pépin

The ArGIS processor allows to geocode full text addresses by using the ArcGIS geocoding API.

This processor can be connected with a custom ArcGIS geocoder. Please contact Opendatasoft support team if you want this configuration to be activated in your domain.

Make sure you have a paid ArcGIS account. Register an application in your ArcGIS developer dashboard.
Retrieve the authorization credentials (client ID and client secret) for the registered application from your ArcGIS account.

Configuring the Client ID and Client Secret

Before using the processor, configure the ArcGIS geocoding API with the Client ID and Client Secret you obtained in your ArcGIS developer dashboard.

  1. In the back office, go to Configuration > Data processing.
  2. In the ArcGIS geocoding API section, enter your Client ID and Client Secret in the corresponding fields.
  3. Click on the Save button at the top of the page.

You can now use the Geocode with ArcGIS processor.
