Web Content Widget - Google Maps

Kristin Komassa

Working with the new Web Content Widget and am unable to get the Google Maps link to work.  Followed all the instructions and keep getting an error -- utilized both the embed and share links.  Anyone else having this issue?

 

TIA!

Hi Kristin,

I tried it just now, and it works for me. What's the error message you're getting?

Can you share the HTML code so that I can try it?

I hope this helps you!

Best,

So, I think I may have figured it out.  I cannot seem to embed a map I created for a specific use (client locations) and is saved in "my places" via Google Maps -- Even though there is an option to get an embed code (<iframe src="https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1uAKCnIqZQN2jwKisGlYF1geetVtHyyHs" width="640" height="480"></iframe>)

or a Share link (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1uAKCnIqZQN2jwKisGlYF1geetVtHyyHs&usp=sharing)

 

The only one that works is the non customized map (<iframe src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!1m14!1m12!1m3!1d5799943.445803741!2d-93.76666172537487!3d44.780731218499!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!5e0!3m2!1sen!2sus!4v1539179144027" width="600" height="450" frameborder="0" style="border:0" allowfullscreen></iframe>)

 

Which isn't helpful at all as I want to display all the clients locations.

Ok. Makes sense because I think that Smartsheet has to add it to allowed links. Would be a great feature and also the Smartsheet Labs Maps would be great to be able to show in a dashboard.

Please request it thru the link below.

Web Content Widget Addition Request

Hi Kristin!

Smartsheet has a very limited number of sources that can be embedded to the web content widget. Recently, Mapsly was added to this list and now it can be embedded into Smartsheet dashboards. It is a powerful map for geo-location analysis, viewing and editing data rows on the map, territory management, calculation of traveling distance/time, and best-matching rows by complex geo-criteria. It has a free 14-day trial and natively integrates with Smartsheet, so I suggest giving it a trial!
