What does the 'Split Address Using Google Geocoding API' feature do?

The Address Manager Micro App adds custom properties to HubSpot objects, including physical, billing, and postal addresses, for flexible management.

 

How the 'Split Address Using Google Geocoding API' works

Essentially you choose your custom property where you have the full address stored back on your desired record (eg. contact or company) and then you select where you want the split components to be stored. You are splitting the full address and pulling your desired components from it

based on the geocoding API you give Google an address which will be processed and will return the most suitable address with all its components, and you then select which properties the components will go to. 

*Note*

  • The address manager only works if there is one result. If you put something ambiguous it wont work, it has to be a specific address with a number for say, it has to be unambiguous where only one result can show, it cant return more than one option.

These properties are:

  • Street name
  • Street name (long property) 
  • Subpremise property 
  • Suburb property
  • City property
  • State property
  • Country property
  • Postal code property
  • Latitude property
  • Longitude property
  • google maps URL

FAQs

Q: Why doesn't the Address Manager use standard HubSpot address properties? 

A: We add Custom Properties rather than using existing address properties as:

  • There are additional properties that we use that do not exist against HubSpot Objects
  • Often standard HubSpot properties are used for other standard integrations or processes, we don't want to mess with these and want to provide you with flexibility in the management of your properties

If you want to use the Google Address Manager Property data in your existing Address Properties then we recommend that you use Workflows to set the standard properties whenever any of the above Properties are 'Known'.

If you just want to use the Glue Properties directly, just set these as your primary properties in views, reports, etc.
