How can I import multiple Addresses or Lat./Long. into the Location Column for Map View?
Use multiple items. Each pin on the map view is a separate item on the board.
Unfortunately last time I checked, it was not possible to import addresses from excel into Monday.com using the “address” column… so you would have to import that data as a Short Text column, then since changing the column type to Address isn’t possible, you’d have to manually copy & paste your values into a new Address column for them to show up on the Map View. Not a great solution, but I think that’s the only way for imports like this to work.
Hi Everyone,
A few months ago we’ve released a feature called Text to Location within our app Location Toolkit. As the name suggest, it allows you to convert a text column containing an address into a Location column and we’re planning to add the same ability for lat+long as well (it works now already for lat/long combinations that map exactly onto an existing address).
Feel free to give it a test using the free 14 day trial or see the feature in action on Youtube: https://youtu.be/5pkv19rsy2o.
Best,
