How to use iNaturalist's Search URLs - wiki - part 2 of 2

If you completely omit the place_id= parameter from the URL, it should default to the search place (if any) of each logged-in user who follows the URL. This would be different for each user. If you are wanting it to always search in your default search place (for anyone following the URL), then you would need to hard-code that place with place_id= in the URL.

Hope I am understanding your question correctly…?
