Create URL with prefilled destinations, only with address, but without GPS coordinates

Maps Website

Hi,

I want to create a dynamic Link in my ERP to the map with prefilled destinations, but I have only the addresses not the GPS coordinates.
I found the “Compress URL” switch to see the full URL and decipher the structure, but it seems that GPS coordiantes are mandatory. How can I skip those coordinates and only have the prefilled addresses?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for reaching out! :+1:

I’m afraid the described feature of linking to the maps client based solely on addresses without providing their corresponding coordinates isn’t currently supported. This is so because queries to the API which calculates the routes take coordinates as input, and these are resolved from the addresses only at the time of entering them. Address-to-coordinates resolution doesn’t happen afterwards. You might, however, perform this step yourself by querying a geocoder e.g. the provided one or any other of your choice.

Cheers!
Andrzej
