I have a dataset that already contains the address z.b Musterstraße 1, 84036 Musterstadt

In my record I have them as follows:
Road: Musterstraße 1
City: 84036 Musterstadt

Now I want to show these addresses automatically via the Maps integration. How can I turn the two address fields into a pin on Google Maps? Is there a function here?

Hi, in order to use an address in Toolset Maps you must use one single field value like "Musterstraße 1, 84036 Musterstadt". There is no function in Toolset to combine multiple fields while importing. The data must be combined before you import it.

Import the combined address into a Toolset Types address field. Assuming the address is mappable by Google Maps, you can then place a marker on a map using this address custom field. We have much more documentation about displaying maps and markers available here: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/display-on-google-maps/

Let me know if you have additional questions about that.

I have tried it with the WP Import All - and have also installed the beta plugin which does not provide the possibility.

Unfortunately that 3rd-party import tool does not support address fields. I encourage you to let them know you want address field support added to their software. Until then, other import tools support address fields: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/how-to-import-content-into-wordpress-using-csv/import-csv-ultimate-csv-importer-plugin/
