# How to enter postal codes in Services AreasTo enter postal codes (zip codes) in Service Areas in Avoca, you typically have two options:

### Option A: Sync from ServiceTitan

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Go to [`https://app.avoca.ai/team/TEAM_ID/service-areas`](https://app.avoca.ai/team/TEAM_ID/service-areas)
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click **Get Zones from ServiceTitan** to import areas + zip codes from ServiceTitan
  </Step>

  <Step>
    On each zone, click **Add all postal codes to** and select the Service Area you would like to add the postal code to

    <Note>
      **NOTE:** If you have the same booking logic for all zones in ServiceTitan, you can click **New Service Area** on the first zone and create an **All Service Areas** zone in Avoca. Then on additional zones, add all postal codes to this new combined zone. This will ease the maintenance requirement of keeping up multiple Service Areas and booking windows later on.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Once done, click **Save Changes**

      </Frame>
    </Columns>

    <Tip>
      If the service area zip list is blank (an empty list like `[]`) or an asterisk (\*), Avoca treats it as a wildcard and **accept all zips**
