      Sharing an address locator

      If you need to share an address locator with other ArcGIS users, you can share it as a locator package or publish it to the web. You can create a locator package (.gcpk) using the Package Locator tool and can share it as a local file or in an ArcGIS portal. If you want to share your locator for use in web maps or web apps, you can publish it as a geocode service. When you publish an address locator as a geocode service, you can apply several helpful capabilities, as described in this table.

      Optional capabilities for geocode services

      Reminder

      ArcGIS Pro 1.4 cannot publish directly to ArcGIS Server. You must be logged in to ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 or later with at least one federated server and Publisher or Administrator privileges to publish a locator in ArcGIS Pro 1.4.
