# Location

Use a **Location** field when the record should store a place or address.

For the general settings all data fields have in common, see [Shared field settings](/builder-hub/design-your-app/add-and-edit-data-fields-in-your-tables/all-data-fields/shared-field-settings.md).

**Location** uses the shared settings only. It does not add extra field-specific options.

Use the search to find a location and choose one of the suggestions.\
Alternatively, click the <i class="fa-location-dot">:location-dot:</i> icon on the right side to open the map. You can place the pin with a double-click or use the search at the top to find a location.

After you select a location, Ninox stores the location details, including coordinates.

{% hint style="info" %}
Use **Location** when the value should work with maps or geographic data. If you only need a plain address, use separate **Text** fields for ZIP code, place, or street instead.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ninox.com/builder-hub/design-your-app/add-and-edit-data-fields-in-your-tables/all-data-fields/location.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
