Can we plot address info from Smartsheet live on to google maps?
Looking to create a live map (Ideally google maps) that updates with Smartsheet address info (Postcodes)

You should be able to.. In a sheet a simple ="https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=" + SUBSTITUTE(Address@row, " ", "+") will plot the address contained in "Address" when clicked.
I know I did it with google sheets in the past before I was not a smartsheet user and that might be a workaround is use something like Zapier to put the records in a google sheet and then use googles functionality to plot the map.
It is more a function of pulling the information from Smartsheet by The Google Map API then it is of having smartsheet do much. To plot points on a single google map, they basically have to submit as one big call or a database query
Maybe look at https://tray.io/connectors/google-maps-smartsheet-integrations or https://www.integromat.com/en/integrations/google-maps/smartsheet or https://www.thexs.ca/xsmapping if you can get Zappier working.
