Exporting Google maps directions from internal map

jcjags63 · 2020-09-09T00:26:07.776Z

I am building an app that finds the most direct route between a starting location, a list of delivery addresses, and an ending location. So far I successfully created the app and it is working properly; however, I can’t seem to export the route I created in my map into Google maps for navigation and directions.

I am using the integrated bubble maps as well as Bubble’s Google Map Extender plugin. The dev from the Bubble’s Map Extender says that this feature isn’t built into their plugin so I am looking for a workaround.

Here is my route within the map on my app

I would like to export this route as a URL pointing towards google maps so that the driver can use it via a direct link or a QR code which I can embed the link into so that the routes can be printed ahead of time. Is there any possible way I can do this?

Did you find any solution for this problem? I have the same kind of features in my next app and I’m wondering why did you choose to use the Google map extender pluggin (by zeroqode) instead of the google API with direction API.
For adding it in the url, did you try to setup a key with its parameters to so? It doesn’t work?

You still end up using the direction API when using the mapextender it was just easier for me to use a prebuilt solution rather than doing it myself. Unfortunately, there has been no luck with this and I haven’t been able to find a workaround that doesn’t involve me building a navigation app for my use.

Ok, that’s what I was thinking. I will try to do so too, maybe I will ask for your help
