How to Enable Address Autocomplete on Google Maps

Google's address autocomplete add-on works by displaying a quick location search field when you enter an address. You can also restrict its results to a specific country. You can do this by adjusting the Address Field type. The add-on uses an API key that you can get from Google Developers Documentation. If you have this key, you can use it to restrict address searches. In this way, your results will be relevant to only your location.



One problem with address autocomplete tools is that they suggest addresses based on their source, not yours. This is because the user assumes that the address they selected is deliverable and accurate. It's not, so it can't know the exact location. This means that it's useless if the address is inaccurate or not deliverable. But the source of the address data is known. So you should know whether you're using the same data for two different addresses.

When shopping online, you'll want to use address autocomplete to make it easier for customers to complete their purchases. The functionality isn't perfect, but it's worth a shot.


You can use Google Maps' JavaScript API to make the process easier. To enable address autocomplete, first add your custom checkout domain to your Google Dashboard. Then, add your new domain to the list of authorized domains. Once you've done this, sign in to Google API Console and create a new project.
