Azuremaps.com Address form with a autosuggest is not working.

Question

Azuremaps.com Address form with a autosuggest is not working.

Kenneth Demming 5

If you go to the Azure Map Samples website and go to the Fill Address Form with Autosuggest sample (https://samples.azuremaps.com/rest-services/fill-address-form-with-autosuggest) and try to run you will find that it no longer works. It no longer makes suggestions. Don't know how else to report this issue.
To be clear the code that is having an issue was completed create by Microsoft and is running on their servers and not mine. It is their website. https://samples.azuremaps.com This is NOT code I have downloade and I am trying to get working in my enviroment.

Hello Kenneth Demming,

It sounds like you're experiencing issues with the autosuggest feature in the Azure Maps Fill Address Form sample. Here are a few things you could try to troubleshoot the issue:

Check for JavaScript Errors: Open your browser’s developer tools (usually F12) and check the console for any JavaScript errors. Sometimes script errors can cause functionalities to break.

Browser Compatibility: Ensure you're using a browser that supports Azure Maps. Sometimes issues can appear in certain versions of browsers.

Use Latest SDK Version: Make sure you're using the latest version of the Azure Maps Web SDK. If you are using an older version, it might lack necessary updates or fixes.

Network Issues: Double-check your internet connection and ensure that there are no restrictions (like a firewall) preventing the autosuggest requests from reaching Azure Maps services.

Sample Code Review: Review the sample code you are working with. Ensure all the necessary parameters for the AutosuggestManager are correctly set, and that you’re passing valid input to it.

Try Example on a Different Network: Sometimes local network configurations can block API requests. Testing it on a different network might help isolate the issue.

Hope this helps!
Thank you!

Thanks but I don't think you understand that this is NOT sample code I downloaded, and I am trying to get working in my environment. Again, this is NOT the situation. This is a Microsoft owned and operated website where you are supposed to be able to see Azure maps in working examples/samples without any user modification. Some of the examples/samples are working while others are not. (This is supposed be and end user experience, not an exam)

I was previously using Bing Maps which Microsoft has eliminated so I am investigating Azure Maps. This sample was working when it was Bing but when Microsoft ported it to Azure Maps it stopped working. (It is on the Azure Sample website now, not the Bing website) So appears that they never tested it. I wanted to compare working code with my code to see how much change was going to be necessary to convert to Azure, but unfortunately Microsoft does not have a working version, and no way to report when their code running on their servers, which is created and maintained by their staff is not working.

This is a broken sample on Microsoft's site, not an issue with your code. Tracking this via Microsoft Q&A and filing a bug in the Azure Maps Samples GitHub repo is your best path forward. That should get it back online or clarified as a known issue.

Hey Kenneth Demming

Observation on Autosuggest is replicable at my side. Have created an issue on github

https://github.com/Azure-Samples/AzureMapsCodeSamples/issues/185

and checking for needed modification here on source code.
