I create a button and map component, when i click on the button get the live location latitude values and longitude values and it map to the live location. self.session.props.geolocation.enabled=true a=self.session.props.geolocation.data.latitude //getting latitude value b=self.session.props.geolocation.data.longitude //getting latitude value self.getSibling(“Map”).props.init.center.lat=a //assign values to latitudee self.getSibling(“Map”).props.init.center.lng=b //assign values to longitude and the location is so in the map ---

whats not working, any logs / errors? does your device have geolocation… did you accept the prompt/granted permission? ---

I am not able to get latitude and longitude values. Geolocation is enable. I not get any popup for grant permission. In the button instead of getting live location, i give the latitude and longitude values it will map and show that location in map. a=self.session.props.geolocation.data.latitude //getting latitude value b=self.session.props.geolocation.data.longitude //getting latitude value If the value is store in the a and b latitude and longitude values, the module is work fine. Is there any script for getting latitude and longitude values of current location ---

> [@user95](#): > > self.session.props.geolocation.enabled=true You should turn this on in a different location. As it prompts the user to click something so this should happen before centering the map. (unless you are looping through it i guess) you will have to check your browser if it allowes geolocation, This might be somewhere else in the settings turned off to. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/7/4/748b78ff6831d8a32a8af3011dbfac72df487922.png) ---

The geolocation is turned on only, I think it may be code issue think so. Is there any way to get latitude and longitude values. Any script related this. ---

the session props are the way to get the lat and lng. But actualy what you are doing wont actually work anyways cuz you are setting up the “init” of the map, so it want “move” to it when you press the button. you should bind the init values to the session props and set the location to true from the start ---

im getting the values no problem so its probaly your device/browser that is blocking geolocation ---

```auto lat = self.session.props.geolocation.data.latitude lng = self.session.props.geolocation.data.longitude system.perspective.print(lat) system.perspective.print(lng) ``` ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/2/3/23f5a744a7a77e3872c1c86a291a411d4567792d.png) works fine in chrome after enabling location. there really isnt much that can go wrong with the script xd ---

okay thank you, I dont know why its not working on my script. self.session.props.geolocation.enabled=bool(1) a=self.session.props.geolocation.data.latitude b=self.session.props.geolocation.data.longitude self.getSibling(“Map”).props.init.center.lat=a self.getSibling(“Map”).props.init.center.lng=b ---

because its not the script but your security settings. location can get blocked (else every website can track your location without permission… or atleast make it harder to track you cuz they can track you anyways but eh xd) ---
