Resource Creation/Update lacks the option to set an adresss

[devolution2409]

As of current version, one can create a building resource with lattitude and longitude. However, this fails to translate to any adress. I created a building using gam, with specifics coordinates, yet it shows as no adress set in the admin console. If i set the address from the admin console, it sets the exact same coordinates in the popup.

I have a business need to have an address set on our buildings (for meeting rooms); however, i failed to find any option in gam which would allow to set a building's address despite the field being shown when using gam info building

 $gam info building TEST2
TEST2 buildingId: id:TEST2
 description:



 coordinates:   latitude: 43.604652
  longitude: 1.444209
 floorNames: 0,1
 address:   addressLines: 
  regionCode:
  locality: 

Would this be doable? Thanks in advance

Standard GAM supports these building attributes:

<BuildingAttribute> ::=

    (description <String>)|

    (floors <FloorNameList>)|

    (id <String>)|

    (latitude <Float>)|

    (longitude <Float>)|

    (name <String>)

Advanced GAM supports these building attributes:

<BuildingAttribute> ::=

    (address|addresslines <String>)|

    (city|locality <String>)|

    (country|regioncode <String>)|

    (description <String>)|

    (floors <FloorNameList>)|

    (id <String>)|

    (language|languageCode <Language>)|

    (latitude <Float>)|

    (longitude <Float>)|

    (name <String>)

    (state|administrativearea <String>)|

    (sublocality <String>)|

    (zipcode|postalcode <String>)

Hi, thanks for your reply

I assume advanced gam is GAMADV-XTD3 ?

(Maybe this is a dumb question but why those version co-existing? I see yours is retrocompatible with GAM anyway so why can't it be merged?)

[NoSubstitute]

@devolution2409 - because GAM is the original, with slow and stable development.

GAMADV-XTD3 updates are released all the time, fast and loose, and often by request of a very small number of pro-users who need extremely specific features which they can't code themselves, and @taers232c graciously adds those features almost instantly. Sometimes they have to be walked back, because they introduce other bugs, and then yet another version is released, fixing the bug.

Many (most?) admins don't have the time to stay up-to-date with GAMADV-XTD3, and also don't need all its features, so they stick to regular GAM.

Every now and then really good features from GAMADV-XTD3 are mirrored in GAM, but that's usually after extensive testing, and/or when there is a significant number of GAM users ask for it, or when @jay0lee thinks it's cool. :-)
