Address search on UI map doesn't work

[gulbala]

Hi. I’d like to use address based search on left sidebar inside searchbox just like available on official GraphHopper interactive UI map
However, in my GraphHopper instances I can provide input only by geocoordinates although I use the latest version.

Is GraphHopper’s own /maps endpoint running UI map different than open source community version on GitHub? Do I need to configure geocoding systems (text address to geographical coordinates and vice versa) such as Nominatim, Photon, Pelias by myself ?
Thanks!

Hello, I’d appreciate it greatly if some GraphHopper developers shed lights on this !
Thanks!

Graphhopper is just about routing. If you need geocoding you need to setup nominatim or phothon in addition

Thanks for your answer.

Instead of setting up geocoding locally you can also setup an API key.

Thanks for the suggestion
