# Geolocation

Some websites request access to your location. This is often used to show a map, find nearby stores, or check delivery availability.

## How to set it up

1. **Grant permission to access location**

Before simulating location data, allow the website to access the browser’s location. See [Granting permissions](/v1/docs/granting-permissions) for more information on how to do that. Use the following permissions:

```json
{
  "permissions": ["geolocation"]
}
```
2. **Set the test location**

Determine the latitude and longitude coordinates of the location you want to simulate. To get the latitude and longitude, you can use a site like [https://plus.codes/map](https://plus.codes/map).

For example, Tokyo Tower has these coordinates:

```json
latitude: 35.658563
longitude: 139.745437
```
3. **Add a Playwright code step**

Add the following Playwright code step **before** the website tries to detect the location:

```typescript
await context.setGeolocation({ latitude: 35.658563, longitude: 139.745437 });
```

### Additional parameters

- You can also include an `accuracy` value in meters if needed:

```typescript
await context.setGeolocation({
  latitude: 35.658563,
  longitude: 139.745437,
  accuracy: 100
});
```
- To simulate the user’s location being unavailable (e.g., no GPS signal), you can pass in a value of `null`

```typescript
await context.setGeolocation(null);
```
