Google Maps Geocode Address Documentation
Overview
The Google Maps Geocode Address node is part of the Google Maps integration in the Vantage workflow engine. Geocode a street address to coordinates using Google Maps.
This node uses the Google Maps API through Vantage's managed credential system — no manual token handling required.
Settings
Address
- Input Type: String
How It Works
- Receives input data from upstream nodes through configured input ports.
- Authenticates with Google Maps using your connected credentials.
- Executes the API operation with the provided configuration and input data.
- Returns the result through the output port for downstream processing.
Error handling is built in — if the API call fails, the node throws a descriptive error with the failure reason.
Input and Output
- Input: Accepts data in object or array format from upstream nodes.
- Output: Returns the Google Maps API response as structured data.
