Azure SDK Python packages support for Python 2.7 has ended 01 January 2022. For more information and questions, please refer to https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-python/issues/20691
Getting started
Prerequisites

Python 3.8 or later is required to use this package.
An Azure subscription and an Azure Maps account.
A deployed Maps Services resource. You can create the resource via Azure Portal or Azure CLI.

If you use Azure CLI, replace <resource-group-name> and <account-name> of your choice, and select a proper pricing tier based on your needs via the <sku-name> parameter. Please refer to this page for more details.
az maps account create --resource-group <resource-group-name> --account-name <account-name> --sku <sku-name>

Install the package
Install the Azure Maps Service Search SDK.
pip install azure-maps-search

Create and Authenticate the MapsSearchClient
To create a client object to access the Azure Maps Search API, you will need a credential object. Azure Maps Search client also support two ways to authenticate.
1. Authenticate with a Subscription Key Credential
You can authenticate with your Azure Maps Subscription Key.
Once the Azure Maps Subscription Key is created, set the value of the key as environment variable: AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY.
Then pass an AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY as the credential parameter into an instance of AzureKeyCredential.
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential
from azure.maps.search import MapsSearchClient

credential = AzureKeyCredential(os.environ.get("AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY"))

search_client = MapsSearchClient(
credential=credential,
)

2. Authenticate with an Azure Active Directory credential
You can authenticate with Azure Active Directory (AAD) token credential using the Azure Identity library.
Authentication by using AAD requires some initial setup:

Install azure-identity
Register a new AAD application
Grant access to Azure Maps by assigning the suitable role to your service principal. Please refer to the Manage authentication page.

After setup, you can choose which type of credential from azure.identity to use.
As an example, DefaultAzureCredential
can be used to authenticate the client:
Next, set the values of the client ID, tenant ID, and client secret of the AAD application as environment variables:
AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_TENANT_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET
You will also need to specify the Azure Maps resource you intend to use by specifying the clientId in the client options. The Azure Maps resource client id can be found in the Authentication sections in the Azure Maps resource. Please refer to the documentation on how to find it.
from azure.maps.search import MapsSearchClient
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential

credential = DefaultAzureCredential()
search_client = MapsSearchClient(credential=credential)

Key concepts
The Azure Maps Search client library for Python allows you to interact with each of the components through the use of a dedicated client object.
Sync Clients
MapsSearchClient is the primary client for developers using the Azure Maps Search client library for Python.
Once you initialized a MapsSearchClient class, you can explore the methods on this client object to understand the different features of the Azure Maps Search service that you can access.
Async Clients
This library includes a complete async API supported on Python 3.5+. To use it, you must first install an async transport, such as aiohttp.
See azure-core documentation for more information.
Async clients and credentials should be closed when they're no longer needed. These objects are async context managers and define async close methods.
Examples
The following sections provide several code snippets covering some of the most common Azure Maps Search tasks, including:

Geocode an address
Batch geocode addresses
Get polygons for a given location
Make a Reverse Address Search to translate coordinate location to street address
Batch request for reverse geocoding

Geocode an address
You can use an authenticated client to convert an address into latitude and longitude coordinates. This process is also called geocoding. In addition to returning the coordinates, the response will also return detailed address properties such as street, postal code, municipality, and country/region information.
import os

from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError

subscription_key = os.getenv("AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY", "your subscription key")

def geocode():
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential
from azure.maps.search import MapsSearchClient

maps_search_client = MapsSearchClient(credential=AzureKeyCredential(subscription_key))
try:
result = maps_search_client.get_geocoding(query="15127 NE 24th Street, Redmond, WA 98052")
if result.get('features', False):
coordinates = result['features'][0]['geometry']['coordinates']
longitude = coordinates[0]
latitude = coordinates[1]

print(longitude, latitude)
else:
print("No results")

except HttpResponseError as exception:
if exception.error is not None:
print(f"Error Code: {exception.error.code}")
print(f"Message: {exception.error.message}")

if __name__ == '__main__':
geocode()

Batch geocode addresses
This sample demonstrates how to perform batch search address.
import os

from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError

subscription_key = os.getenv("AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY", "your subscription key")

def geocode_batch():
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential
from azure.maps.search import MapsSearchClient

maps_search_client = MapsSearchClient(credential=AzureKeyCredential(subscription_key))
try:
result = maps_search_client.get_geocoding_batch({
"batchItems": [
{"query": "400 Broad St, Seattle, WA 98109"},
{"query": "15127 NE 24th Street, Redmond, WA 98052"},
],
},)

if not result.get('batchItems', False):
print("No batchItems in geocoding")
return

for item in result['batchItems']:
if not item.get('features', False):
print(f"No features in item: {item}")
continue

coordinates = item['features'][0]['geometry']['coordinates']
longitude, latitude = coordinates
print(longitude, latitude)

except HttpResponseError as exception:
if exception.error is not None:
print(f"Error Code: {exception.error.code}")
print(f"Message: {exception.error.message}")

if __name__ == '__main__':
geocode_batch()

Get polygons for a given location
This sample demonstrates how to search polygons.
import os

from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError
from azure.maps.search import Resolution
from azure.maps.search import BoundaryResultType


subscription_key = os.getenv("AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY", "your subscription key")

def get_polygon():
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential
from azure.maps.search import MapsSearchClient

maps_search_client = MapsSearchClient(credential=AzureKeyCredential(subscription_key))
try:
result = maps_search_client.get_polygon(
coordinates=[-122.204141, 47.61256],
result_type=BoundaryResultType.LOCALITY,
resolution=Resolution.SMALL,
)

if not result.get('geometry', False):
print("No geometry found")
return

print(result["geometry"])
except HttpResponseError as exception:
if exception.error is not None:
print(f"Error Code: {exception.error.code}")
print(f"Message: {exception.error.message}")

if __name__ == '__main__':
get_polygon()

Make a Reverse Address Search to translate coordinate location to street address
You can translate coordinates into human-readable street addresses. This process is also called reverse geocoding. This is often used for applications that consume GPS feeds and want to discover addresses at specific coordinate points.
import os

from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError

subscription_key = os.getenv("AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY", "your subscription key")

def reverse_geocode():
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential
from azure.maps.search import MapsSearchClient

maps_search_client = MapsSearchClient(credential=AzureKeyCredential(subscription_key))
try:
result = maps_search_client.get_reverse_geocoding(coordinates=[-122.138679, 47.630356])
if result.get('features', False):
props = result['features'][0].get('properties', {})
if props and props.get('address', False):
print(props['address'].get('formattedAddress', 'No formatted address found'))
else:
print("Address is None")
else:
print("No features available")
except HttpResponseError as exception:
if exception.error is not None:
print(f"Error Code: {exception.error.code}")
print(f"Message: {exception.error.message}")


if __name__ == '__main__':
reverse_geocode()

Batch request for reverse geocoding
This sample demonstrates how to perform reverse search by given coordinates in batch.
import os
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential
from azure.core.exceptions import HttpResponseError
from azure.maps.search import MapsSearchClient

subscription_key = os.getenv("AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY", "your subscription key")

def reverse_geocode_batch():
maps_search_client = MapsSearchClient(credential=AzureKeyCredential(subscription_key))
try:
result = maps_search_client.get_reverse_geocoding_batch({
"batchItems": [
{"coordinates": [-122.349309, 47.620498]},
{"coordinates": [-122.138679, 47.630356]},
],
},)

if result.get('batchItems', False):
for idx, item in enumerate(result['batchItems']):
features = item['features']
if features:
props = features[0].get('properties', {})
if props and props.get('address', False):
print(
props['address'].get('formattedAddress', f'No formatted address for item {idx + 1} found'))
else:
print(f"Address {idx + 1} is None")
else:
print(f"No features available for item {idx + 1}")
else:
print("No batch items found")
except HttpResponseError as exception:
if exception.error is not None:
print(f"Error Code: {exception.error.code}")
print(f"Message: {exception.error.message}")


if __name__ == '__main__':
reverse_geocode_batch()

Troubleshooting
General
Maps Search clients raise exceptions defined in Azure Core.
This list can be used for reference to catch thrown exceptions. To get the specific error code of the exception, use the error_code attribute, i.e, exception.error_code.
Logging
This library uses the standard logging library for logging.
Basic information about HTTP sessions (URLs, headers, etc.) is logged at INFO level.
Detailed DEBUG level logging, including request/response bodies and unredacted headers, can be enabled on a client with the logging_enable argument:
import sys
import logging
from azure.maps.search import MapsSearchClient

# Create a logger for the 'azure.maps.search' SDK
logger = logging.getLogger('azure.maps.search')
logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

# Configure a console output
handler = logging.StreamHandler(stream=sys.stdout)
logger.addHandler(handler)

Similarly, logging_enable can enable detailed logging for a single operation,
even when it isn't enabled for the client:
service_client.get_service_stats(logging_enable=True)
