PROBLEM
The 'suggest' operation is a geocode service operation that produces auto-completed suggestions for the input text to a specific place or address.
When using 'suggest' from the REST endpoint, an invalid URL error is returned. The image below shows the suggest operation with the "Invalid URL" error.
The 'suggest' operation in the address locator of the geocode service is not enabled.
The following instructions describe how to enable the 'suggest' operation for a geocode service.
Note: Suggestions are only supported by address locators created using ArcGIS Desktop 10.3 and later.
