Google Maps API
Google Maps is a web mapping service developed by Google. It offers satellite imagery, aerial photography, street maps, 360° panoramic views of streets, real-time traffic conditions, and route planning for traveling by foot, car, bicycle and air, or public transportation.

Use the Google Maps Connector
Add the google_maps connector on your Zenaton dashboard,
enter the credentials and authorize Zenaton to call the google_maps API from your workflows.
Then add code snippet and URL path to your workflow.
const { workflow } = require("zenaton")
module.exports = workflow("MyWorkflow", function* () {
const google_maps = this.connector(
'google_maps',
'connector-id')
const response = yield google_maps.get('path_to_API')
const params = {body: {param1: '...'}}
yield google_maps.post('path_to_API', params)
})The Zenaton Engine
We handle the complexity of orchestrating Google Maps API calls and related logic in your code.
Out of the Box API Call
Add the connector to your Zenaton workflow and we manage the authentication, oauth1 and oauth2 flow including token refreshing.
Automatic Retries & Alerting
If your Google Maps API call fails, it can automatically be retried and you will receive an alert with error details.
Monitoring and Troubleshooting
View the Zenaton dashboard for execution history, scheduled tasks, errors and logs or retry failed Google Maps API calls.
Integrate Google Maps into your application logic
The Zenaton connector is a pre-configured task for calling the Google Maps API inside your workflow with one line of code. Build custom integration logic by adding a workflow directly into your application using the functions in the Zenaton SDK.
// The Zenaton engine orchestrates google maps API calls and related logic via the Zenaton agent. Every step is executed at the right moment on your servers and monitored on Zenaton dashboard.
const { workflow } = require("zenaton");
// google maps authentification on Zenaton
module.exports = workflow("ParallelWorkflow", function* () {
const google maps = this.connector(
'google maps',
'your-connector-id-from-zenaton-dashboard'
);
// execute parallel tasks handled automatically by the Zenaton engine
const [a, b] = yield this.run.task(["TaskA"],["TaskB"]);
if (a > b) {
const response = yield google maps.get('path_to_API');
} else {
yield this.run.task('TaskD');
}
});
const { workflow } = require("zenaton");
// google maps authentification on Zenaton
module.exports = workflow("AsynchronousWorkflow", function* () {
const google maps = this.connector(
'google maps',
'your-connector-id-from-zenaton-dashboard'
);
this.run.task('TaskA');
this.google maps.post('path_to_API');
yield run.task('TaskB');
yield this.run.task('TaskD');
});
// Tasks can be automatically (or manually) retried and executions are displayed in real-time on the Zenaton dashboard.
const { workflow, duration } = require("zenaton");
// google maps authentification on Zenaton
module.exports = workflow("WaitWorkflow", function* () {
const google maps = this.connector(
'google maps',
'your-connector-id-from-zenaton-dashboard'
);
yield this.run.task('TaskA');
// The 'wait function is managed by the Zenaton engine and will be executed on your worker at the right time.
yield this.wait.for(duration.days(7));
yield google maps.get('path_to_API');
});
const { workflow, duration } = require("zenaton");
module.exports = workflow("WaitEventWorkflow", function*() {
const google maps = this.connector(
'google maps',
'your-connector-id-from-zenaton-dashboard'
);
// Wait for up to 24 hours for the event using the Zenaton Wait Function.
const event = yield this.wait.event("MyEvent").for(duration.hours(24));
if (event) {
// If event has been triggered within 24 hours
yield this.run.task('TaskA');
} else {
// else calls google maps API
yield google maps.get('path_to_API');
}
}
});
