# Search a location — Geonames

Botize method — `geonames.search` (action).

Search for a location with GeoNames and get its geographic data.

This is an action: it runs as a step of a task. Several can be chained.

## Fields you set

The field's internal name, its type and the values it accepts. These fields accept `{{...}}` tags from earlier steps.

- `query` *(string)* — Text String
- `language` *(string, one of: "" = English; "ES" = Español)* — Results language

*(Fields derived from the configuration form.)*

## Output variables

Data this step makes available. Reference them in later steps with the double-brace tag.

- `{{geonames_id}}` *(text)* — Geoname Id
- `{{geonames_country}}` *(text)* — Country
- `{{geonames_latitude}}` *(decimal)* — Latitude
- `{{geonames_longitude}}` *(decimal)* — Longitude
- `{{geonames_admin_district}}` *(text)* — Admin District (province)
