Google Maps Widget Integration

Google Maps is the leading solution for finding points of interest, directions, traffic information, and much more. When integrated, the Google Maps Widget will import a saved, public Google Map of your creation into a Widget that can be manipulated, zoomed in/out of, and toggled between map types. Additionally, the Google Map can be configured (within Google Maps) to display as many or as few layers of the map to reveal or hide different points of interest.

Upon Integration

Admins can share a custom-made Google Map that refreshes immediately within the Widget upon an update to the map.
Admins can configure a CTA button that sends users to an external (or internal) link.
Within the Google Maps Widget, users can move the map, zoom in/out, select different pins, and toggle the map type.
Clicking on the map in the Widget will immediately send the user to that map linked from Google Maps where the user can enjoy full functionality.
