‍

With this automation, you can seamlessly extract location details from a Google Maps card and effortlessly save them to your Notion database. Say goodbye to the hassle of manual data entry and hello to a streamlined process. 

‍

Whether you're tracking places of interest, creating travel itineraries, or organizing client addresses, this automation ensures that your Google Maps locations are efficiently synced with your Notion workspace. Stay organized, access information with ease, and focus on what matters most—exploring and managing your locations.

Let’s set it up!

Step 1: Create A Notion Database

The first step is to create a Notion database with the information you want to save.

‍

‍

Bardeen will extract information from the currently opened Google Maps location card like phone number, reviews, address, preview image, links, and more. It will then save this information to your database, once the setup is complete.

Step 2: Install the extension and run the playbook

You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Notion.

Click the “Pin it” button at the top of this page to get this automation saved to your Playbooks.

‍

Activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on PC on your keyboard) and click on the playbook card. The setup flow will start. 

‍

You will be asked to specify the Notion database you created in Step #1. After you choose the database, you will get a prompt to map the information to the fields in Notion.

‍

‍

The left side consists of all the fields Bardeen will scrape for you. On the right side, specify the fields in Notion that you want to associate with the information on the left. If you don’t want a piece of information, leave that field empty, and it will be skipped. That’s it!

‍

Click on “Save Input” and checkmark Noiton. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook. 

Step 3: Start saving!

When you want to save a Google Maps location to Notion with one click, navigate to the Google Maps card.

‍

Activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on PC on your keyboard)  and run this playbook. It will save the information from the Google Maps location card to your Notion database.

‍

This automation is fantastic if you are a real estate professional who can benefit from this automation by using it to save property locations to a Notion database. When exploring potential properties, agents can quickly extract relevant details from Google Maps, such as address, proximity to amenities, and neighborhood information, and seamlessly store them in Notion. This enables them to maintain an organized database of properties, easily access location information during client meetings, and make informed decisions when assisting clients with property recommendations.

‍

For businesses managing a field service team, this automation can also be invaluable. Field service managers can save job locations, client addresses, and service routes from Google Maps directly to a Notion database. This allows for efficient scheduling and assignment of tasks to field technicians, ensuring they have all the necessary location details at their fingertips. The Playbook helps streamline coordination, optimize travel routes, and improve overall field service productivity by providing a centralized location database accessible to the entire team.

You can also edit the playbook and add your next action to further customize the automation.
