Google Integrations

Google Integrations enable seamless connectivity between Google services (such as Google Sheets, Google Drive, Google Maps, and Gmail) and third-party platforms or tools. These integrations allow users to automate workflows, sync data, and enhance productivity across various applications. For example, you can automatically update Google Sheets with new data from other apps, visualize GPS data on Google Maps, or use Google Drive for file storage and sharing.

By integrating Google’s suite of tools with other systems, businesses can streamline processes, improve collaboration, and centralize their data for better visibility and management across platforms.

Integrate Google Spreadsheet with Google Maps

The Google Maps integration enables SiteTrax.io users to visualize their asset data using Google My Maps. By following simple steps, users can import their SiteTrax.io Data Spreadsheet into Google My Maps to view and interact with asset locations based on GPS coordinates.

Steps for Integration:

  1. Open Your Data: Access your SiteTrax.io Data Spreadsheet and log into your Google Account to open Google My Maps (link here).
  2. Create a New Map: Click the "Create a New Map" button in Google My Maps.
  3. Import Data: Use the "Import" option to select your SiteTrax.io Data Spreadsheet from Google Drive.
  4. Assign Coordinates: Map the latitude (gps_lat) and longitude (gps_lon) columns from your data to position asset markers.
  5. Title the Markers: Select the "Text" column to title your asset markers.
  6. View Data: You can now view and interact with your assets on the map, including searching for specific assets.

This integration allows for enhanced asset tracking and visibility by visualizing real-time asset locations on a map. Please note that even though our spreadsheet is updated live with new data entries, that is not the case for Google maps integration. To reflect changes on Google maps, you will have to reimport the data.
