Required update: Use the new ArcGIS geocoding endpoint #318

Open ak-kemp opened 2 years ago

There are two required updates to the URL in esriProvider.ts.

  1. The geocode.arcgis.com URL must be updated to use the new endpoint: geocode-api.arcgis.com to make authenticated requests via an API key or OAuth token to access the service.
  2. The find operation is deprecated. You will need to use findAddressCandidates.

Current 

    'https://geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer/find';

Required update

    'https://geocode-api.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer/findAddressCandidates/token=<YOUR_API_KEY>'

What this entails

A user will need an ArcGIS account and an API key scoped to access the Geocoding service.
