How to setup Google Maps and Perplexity AI in 5 easy steps
Set up your Google Cloud Platform project
Before you can connect Google Maps to Make, you need to create a project in Google Cloud Platform. Log in to Google Cloud Platform, click on 'Create or select a project', then choose 'New project'. Give your project a meaningful name, select a location for it, and click 'Create'. After creation, make sure your new project is selected in the dropdown menu at the top of the page so all your subsequent work happens in the correct project environment.
Get your Google Maps API key
To allow Make to communicate with Google Maps, you'll need an API key from Google Cloud Platform. Navigate to 'APIs & Services' in the sidebar, then go to 'Credentials'. Click on '+ Create Credentials' and select 'API key' from the options. Google will generate a unique key for you—copy this key immediately and store it in a safe place, as you'll need to paste it into Make during the connection setup process.
Connect Google Maps in Make
Now you're ready to set up the connection in Make. Log in to your Make account and add a Google Maps module to your automation scenario. Click 'Create a Connection' to begin linking Google Maps to Make. In the connection window, paste the API key you copied from Google Cloud Platform into the 'API Key' field, give your connection a name if desired, and click 'Save' to complete the setup.
Generate your Perplexity AI API key
To connect Perplexity AI to Make, you first need to get an API key from Perplexity. Log into your Perplexity AI account and click the Settings icon next to your username, then select 'API' from the sidebar. Set up an API group by entering the required information and saving it. Then, go to the 'API Keys' tab and click '+ Create Key' to generate your API key. Copy this key and save it securely for the next step.
Connect Perplexity AI in Make and start automating
With your Perplexity AI API key ready, log into Make and add a Perplexity AI module to your scenario. Click 'Create a connection' and paste your API key into the 'API Key' field. Optionally, you can name your connection for identification purposes. Click 'Save' to finalize the connection. Once both Google Maps and Perplexity AI are connected, you can build automated workflows that allow these two applications to work together, sharing data and performing tasks.

FAQ
By integrating Google Maps with Perplexity AI through Make, you can automatically enrich location data with AI-powered insights. For example, when you identify a location on Google Maps, you can trigger Perplexity AI to generate comprehensive information about that area, including historical context, cultural significance, local attractions, or business insights. This integration is perfect for travel bloggers, real estate professionals, market researchers, or anyone needing intelligent location-based content without manual research.
Make enables you to create powerful automated workflows such as: generating detailed area reports when new locations are added to your Google Maps lists, automatically creating travel itineraries with AI-generated recommendations based on map coordinates, enriching customer location data with market intelligence, or building location-aware content for marketing campaigns. The visual workflow builder in Make allows you to set up these automations without coding, connecting triggers from Google Maps to Perplexity AI's knowledge discovery capabilities.
Not at all! Make's intuitive drag-and-drop interface makes it straightforward to connect Google Maps and Perplexity AI without any programming knowledge. You'll select Google Maps as your trigger (such as when a new place is saved), then add Perplexity AI as an action to generate insights about that location. Make provides pre-built modules for both applications, and you can test each step before activating your automation. Plus, Make offers templates and a supportive community to help you get started quickly.
Using Make to automate the connection between Google Maps and Perplexity AI saves you significant time and ensures consistency. Instead of manually copying location data, opening Perplexity AI, and typing queries for each location, Make handles this automatically in seconds. This means you can process dozens or hundreds of locations efficiently, maintain consistent data quality, reduce human error, and focus on analyzing insights rather than gathering them. Additionally, Make's automation runs 24/7, allowing you to scale your location intelligence operations without additional effort.
A scenario represents a workflow or a project of your own creation, and it is made up of a series of modules that automate apps and services. Creating a scenario allows you to transfer and transform data between apps and services via these modules to automate anything and improve the way you work.
Modules are the main building blocks of automation in Make. Modules represent actions that Make performs with an app, like creating, updating, or deleting data.
How it works
