Shouldn't adding an address or location via the api turn on the map feature automatic?

Question

So I'm sending in an adress that is formated in the following way:

"Johansdalsvägen 2 d 70231, Örebro"

When I'm trying to add the location manually in Trello I can find it and the map comes up like expected.

Apart from sending in the address when creating the card, is there anything else that needs to be done?

Yes, you click location, enter the address, it gives you a dropdown list for you to choose. But if you want to do it as part of some automation you might have to use something like this.

"Back of a card"? In the description or where? And I only need to insert one of those options right?

There are 4 card attributes for location - locationLabel, address and a pair of Lat and Lon. These are not available as variables so you need to insert it via an address at the back of a card. The alternative is to apply reverse geocoding and update the card via api.
