Note:

In this example we used input fields to show the address information, but you can also map the address information to variables that can be pushed to Salesforce.

Examples of input fields:

Number
Street
Longitude
Latitude
City
State
Zip
Country
Locality

Click the + icon to add a new element to a Web project.
Select the Widget option and drag the Address Finder widget to the canvas.

Click the Gear icon to open the Address Finder Settings screen. You can use Static or Dynamic Values. The Static Values option is selected by default.
Use the Static Region drop-down list to select a region. The drop-down list contains all the country names. This is not mandatory.
- If you do not select a country from the list, the whole globe will be searched.
- If you select a country, the search will be limited to that specific country.

Alternatively, select Dynamic Values and use the Dynamic Region drop-down list to search for the variable or input field that you added. This is not mandatory.

Click the Configure button. The Configure Custom Parameters screen opens.
- You must configure the attributes that you get from Google and can, for example, push them to Salesforce.
- You can map these attributes to hidden fields, input fields, or variables.
Configure the custom parameters by using the drop-down lists.

Titan Parameter	Google Maps Platform Description
Address	The address which you want to geocode. This is a mandatory parameter.
Locality	Indicates an incorporated city or town political entity.
Street_address	Indicates a precise street address.
Sublocality	Indicates a first-order civil entity below a locality. Some locations may receive one of the additional types: sublocality_level_1 to sublocality_level_5. Each sublocality level is a civil entity. Larger numbers indicate a smaller geographic area.
Postal_code	Indicates a postal code as used to address postal mail within the country.
Country	Indicates the national political entity and is typically the highest order type returned by the Geocoder.
Administrative_area-level_1	Indicates a first-order civil entity below the country level. Within the United States, these administrative levels are states. Not all nations have these administrative levels. In most cases, administrative_area_level_1 short names will closely match ISO 3166-2 subdivisions and other widely circulated lists; however, this is not guaranteed as our geocoding results are based on a variety of signals and location data.
Administrative_area-level_2	Indicates a second-order civil entity below the country level. Within the United States, these administrative levels are counties. Not all nations have these administrative levels.
Administrative_area-level_3	Indicates a third-order civil entity below the country level. This type indicates a minor civil division. Not all nations have these administrative levels.
Street_number	Indicates the precise street number.
Route	Indicates a named route (such as “US 101”).
Formatted_address	This is a string containing the human-readable address of this location.
Latitude	Indicates the latitude of the address. Google returns this location as a `LatLng` object, not as a formatted string.
Longitude	Indicates the longitude of the address. Google returns this location as a `LatLng` object, not as a formatted string.
State	Indicates the state; for example, the address “111 8th Avenue, New York, NY” consists of the following components: “111” (the street number), “8th Avenue” (the route), “New York” (the city) and “NY” (the US state). Also, refer to administrative_level_1.
City	Indicates the city, for example, the address “111 8th Avenue, New York, NY” consists of the following components: “111” (the street number), “8th Avenue” (the route), “New York” (the city) and “NY” (the US state). Also, refer to locality.
