Online Map : Return value

Rainer

Hello all, does anybody know if its possible to return value of distance from Online Map to Dynamics?

For an ex. using this hyperlink.
HYPERLINK('http://www.google.de/maps?f=d&hl=en&saddr=[from street]+[from post code]+[from city]&daddr='
+Address+' '+"Post Code"+' '+City);

..and then return the distance from A to B.

You would probably have to use a .NET automation to scrape the contents of the page.

Did you get solution for this? How did you get only distance using Online Map?

Hi Nina77,

I have finish used OnlineMap standard functionaity and added some code to cover the business content above it.
In order to get the distance value from Google Map, you need to register to (its not free of charge) https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/directions/start.

Then, you need to create a NAV WS so that code can call function to run the WS and get the JSON file from Google WS. Then, this JSON file has to be read into the NAV.

Thanks, Damjan
