Get longitude and latitude values to account entity

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community member 7
Hi,
 
I have activated the bing map to yes in settings and get the map correctly for the account if address 1 is filled in.
But how do I get the values for the fields longitud and latitud for account entity. 
I can see some articles about enable/activate geo coding for app field service but I'm only using the Sales app.
Any tip/suggestion ?

    Hi,
     
    OK thanks, I will check this suggestion. However just wonder how to apply address fields from account to this script for google maps so that I get
    longitude and latitude values back for this particular address ?

    Hi,
     
    We have analyzed your requirements, but according to the official documentation Dynamics 365 Field Service has the feature /Enable on automatic geocoding/, we didn't find a similar feature in Sales Hub. This may mean that your requirement cannot be realized using out-of-the-box functionality.
     
    The article linked below mentions a solution for embedding Google Maps to display latitude/longitude locations, which will hopefully fulfill your need.

    Additionally, if you think this feature is essential to your needs, we recommend that you use the link below to propose your Idea in the Dynamics community.

    I hope my answer is helpful to you! If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me.
     
    Best Regards,
    Rudy Zhang
