How can I use the new feature in Webflow to include a Google Map embed for each dynamic record in a directory with hundreds of entries?

To include a Google Map embed for each dynamic record in a directory with hundreds of entries in Webflow, you can utilize the new dynamic embed feature in combination with the integration capabilities of Webflow CMS.

Below are the steps you can follow to achieve this:

1. Design your dynamic template: Start by designing the dynamic template for your records in Webflow. Add a section or div block in the template where you want the Google Map to be embedded.

2. Add a new field in CMS: In the Webflow CMS, add a new field for the Map URL or coordinates for each record. This field will store the unique map details for each entry. Make sure the field type matches the data format required by the Google Map embed code (URL or coordinates).

3. Generate embed code for Google Map: Go to the Google Maps website and locate the area or location you want to display on the map. Select the "Share" or "Embed" option and customize the size, marker, and other settings as per your requirements. Once done, copy the generated embed code.

4. Add dynamic embed component: Go back to your Webflow project and open the dynamic template where you want to add the Google Map. Drag and drop the Dynamic Embed component onto the section or div block you created in step 1.

5. Connect dynamic data: With the Dynamic Embed component selected, go to the Settings panel on the right-hand side. Connect the dynamic map field you created in step 2 to the Embed field of the component. This will populate the embed code dynamically for each record.

6. Include embed code: Paste the Google Map embed code into the Embed field of the Dynamic Embed component. Make sure to enclose the code within script tags if necessary.

7. Style the map container: Style the section or div block that contains the embedded map using Webflow's styling options. You can apply dimensions, positioning, and styling as per your design requirements.

8. Preview and publish: Preview the dynamic template to see how the Google Map embeds for each record. Ensure that the map is displaying correctly and is responsive across different devices. Once satisfied, publish your changes to make them live on your website.

By following these steps, you'll be able to include a unique Google Map embed for each dynamic record in your directory, providing your users with an interactive and location-specific experience.
