    Also, both these forms do not populate hidden fields (geolocation widget
    info)

    For Geolocation widget to work you have to input the Google Maps API key:

    Without that, the widget will not work.

    You can access it from the Widget's wizard.

    Let us know if you have any further questions.

    Thank you!

    It appears like you deleted the Geo Location widget from your form, and added the Get Visitor Location widget instead. I have cloned the form, and tested it, and it did not work, because you have hidden it through its settings, and wizard.

    So, to make it work, please disable the hidden option from its settings:

    Hiding it through the wizard is enough:

    So it won't show in the form, but the data is captured and it will show in your submissions report.

    Ok! I added the API, it still does not work.
    Also, "Get Visitor" widget doesnt fetch the details. Please check the
    latest submission

    Could you please give us more information about the Geolocation widget and what exactly is not working?

    Also, please try creating new Google Maps API key:

    I checked and everything seems fine.

    We'll wait for your response.

    Regarding the Get visitor question I opened a separate thread here: https://www.jotform.com/answers/1331035

    We will attend it shortly.

    Thank you!
