Trying to make a Geolocation column editable in a Sharepoint list
In Sharepoint, I am trying to create a map view from a sharepoint list. To do this, I am following this guide (which mirrors the documentation). I had no problems running the powershell....
Add-PnPField -List $List -Type GeoLocation -DisplayName $FieldName -InternalName $FieldName -AddToDefaultView -AddToAllContentTypes
... and I can see the geolocation field in the site settings:
The problem is that I can't edit the value in the list. It doesn't work in "Create", "Edit" or "Edit in Grid". If I click on the column in site settings, there is no option to make it editable.
Hello AdamCodes716
try to create the field direct on list over the SharePoint list GUI. I do the same and it's possible to edit the value, also in grid view:
Best, Dave

- Thank you David. Just to be clear, this "location" field must be of the special type "geolocation". From what I have read (and my own experience), it is currently only possible to create this field using code.
