Integration of google maps address search function? (Places Search)

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A

Hi everyone.

Is there any way to directly search google maps when adding addresses to a form dealing with customer creation?

Currently, our employees have to search an address on google maps then manually enter/copy across each segment of an address into their respective ‘columns’ in the form.

I have noticed that some websites have a directly integrated google maps search function when asking for an address. Is this feature available to integrate into AppSheet?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Cheers,
Liam

If you set the column type as Address, then type in a rough address, a couple of seconds later you’ll get a suggestion underneath which is a valid google maps address
