latitude/longitude values

John McKenzie

(Pro v11.1 - sugarcloud)

Hello,

For the accounts records within our crm, we have set an iFrame to return the Google map showing the location.

www.google.com/.../place, {billing_address_city}, {billing_address_postalcode}, {billing_address_country}

This works okay and well enough, but we would like to add and record the latitude/longitude values within the system too. 

Is there a way we can get these?

Any help appreciated - Kind regards john

    I don't believe there is anything out of the box to achieve this. What you are looking for is a Geocoding third party API to build an integration for your Sugar.

    I read in the past that someone had easily integrated Loqate for address validation and geocoding, of course they require a subscription.

    Google, TomTom, Bing and others have geocoding APIs, some free, some not.

    This is a relatively recent review of some free ones, I don't know anything about the reviewer or their reputation, so take it with a grain of salt.

    It will be interesting to see what people suggest in this forum and what their experience is with some of these tools.
