# Google Maps Automation via Rube MCP Geocode addresses, search places, get directions, compute distance matrices, and retrieve place details using Google Maps via Rube MCP (Composio). **Toolkit docs**: [composio.dev/toolkits/google_maps](https://composio.dev/toolkits/google_maps) ## Prerequisites - Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available) - Active connection via `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `google_maps` - Always call `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` first to get current tool schemas ## Setup **Get Rube MCP**: Add `https://rube.app/mcp` as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works. 1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` responds 2. Call `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `google_maps` 3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete setup 4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows ## Core Workflows ### 1. Geocode an Address Use `GOOGLE_MAPS_GEOCODING_API` to convert a street address into geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude). ``` Tool: GOOGLE_MAPS_GEOCODING_API Parameters: - address: Street address or plus code to geocode - latlng: Lat/lng for reverse geocoding (e.g., "40.714224,-73.961452") - place_id: Place ID for place geocoding - language: Language for results - region: Region bias (ccTLD code) - bounds: Bounding box for viewport bias - components: Component filter (e.g., "postal_code:94043|c
