How do I add or delete geolocations in the Bandwidth App?
How do I add a geolocation?
- Log in to the Bandwidth App.
- In the side navigation bar, click Emergency.
- Select Dynamic Geolocations and click Add.
- Complete the required fields. If you need additional address fields, such as a number prefix or a street suffix, select Show Detailed Form.
- Enter a Geolocation ID to help you easily identify this geolocation when associating it with an endpoint. This will be auto-generated if left blank.
Note: An auto-generated Geolocation ID is guaranteed to be unique. When manually creating a Geolocation ID, the entered ID will be checked against existing Geolocation IDs on your account, If that ID already exists, a warning modal will appear and you can either overwrite the existing address or create a different Geolocation ID. Please be aware that overwriting the current address for a Geolocation ID will impact the 911 call routing for all endpoints associated with it.
- Click Add Geolocation.
- You'll see a confirmation message displaying the submitted address and its reformatted version.
- To proceed, click Accept and Submit.
- To edit the reformatted address, click Edit Reformatted Address.
- To return to the previous page, click Cancel.
How do I add geolocations in bulk?
- In the side navigation bar, click Emergency.
- Select Dynamic Geolocations and click Add.
- Click Template CSV to download our sample CSV file where you can enter your geolocations.
- Once you've filled out and saved the file, click Import Geolocations.
- Drag and drop the CSV file or click Browse to search for it on your device.
- Click Save Changes.
How do I delete geolocations?
- In the side navigation bar, click Emergency.
- Select Dynamic Geolocations and check the box(es) next to the geolocation(s) you want to delete.
Note: If the geolocation has one or more endpoints associated with it, the checkbox will be greyed out. To delete it, you'll first need to associate its endpoint(s) with another geolocation.
- Click Delete. A countdown will appear at the top of the page. If you change your mind, you'll have 5 seconds to click Cancel before the geolocation gets deleted.
