There is a new setting now inside the task called ‘maps embed string'.

This string is used to generate your embed code.

You have 2 macro codes, name and address.

These are dynamically replaced when the task is run.

The embed code is very simple, all it does is a run query of place name + address to generate a shareable map embed.

You can customize the embed string to style the embed size and look.

For example: Change width or height to make the embed bigger or smaller.
