Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have a project coming up whereby we will be pulling in external data to Google maps via our clients API. It will contain things like locations for various products and services, contact and address information per location, fuel types and fuel brands etc.
Is this something we should try and do in conjunction with Toolset, or do you think we'd be better off creating a custom map plugin?

Is there any documentation that you are following?
No

Is there a similar example that we can see?
Design - hidden link

What is the link to your site?
In early development

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I do not know even you want to save the address or directly apply the response data coming from API to map.

If you wanted to set map options programmatically - you can use the following hook:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/programmatically-change-map-settings/

Toolset also supports REST API to fetch the data. Please check the following Doc:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/toolset-integration-with-the-rest-api/

All in all, anything beyond this will be a custom programming case which is beyond the scope of our support policy.
