Chat Directive: Location

The location directive calls a messenger's API to send location information to messenger users. The location directive can be entered via:

• Agent Desktop chat UI Text Input Field
• Scenario Builder Send Message+ block
• Workflow Builder Send Message+ block

Format

---

The location directive consists of a forward slash followed by the word location, a longitude, a latitude, an optional title, and an optional address.

Location directive format
/location <longitude>, <latitude>[, "title", "address"]

Formatting Rules

---

• Directives are case sensitive.
• Separate a directive from its parameters with a colon or whitespace.
• Separate multiple parameters with commas.
• Enclose string parameters in double quotes.
• Add required parameters before optional parameters.
• An optional parameter value may be an empty string.

	Separating a directive from its parameters with whitespace is allowed for backward compatibility. The recommended separator is a colon, except for the buttons directive which only accepts whitespace between the directive and its parameters.
