One simple question: how to create a link that opens google maps with the coordinates inputted?

So when using link component and one has inputted the coordinates in a template column then how to get google maps to open the actual location.

I think it used to work - but cannot get it working now?

Any hints?

I think there’s an action for that… “Open address on map”… Or does it have to be in the link itself?

These are my old notes, I hope this is what you want.

```auto
<iframe width="100%" height="600" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="https://maps.google.com/maps?width=100%25&amp;height=600&amp;hl=en&amp;q=COORDINATE&amp;t=p&amp;z=14&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;iwloc=B&amp;output=embed"></iframe>

```

Or this:

If you’re using this.

Then just have an open link button and point it to the URL.
