How to integrate google maps locations in JIRA Service Desk portal

Question

Hello! I'm trying to integrate some kind of location picker to my service desk customer portal.

Best case scenario the user can search for a location (for example a hotel) on a map which then gets attached to the issue or gets written in a custom field.

Has anyone an idea how to achieve that?

Thanks in advance!

I tested GeoData for Jira and was pleasantly surprised by how well it handles this. You can easily connect Jira issues with real-world locations and work with them directly on a map.

Definitely one of the better options I’ve found for location-based Jira use cases.

Hi Robert,

thanks for your reply! I am on server and looked into JSU already. Unfortunately it's not quite what I am looking for. You can pre select some places that the user can then choose but I need it the other way around. The user should choose a place from google maps which then gets written into a custom field.

Cheers,

Peter

hello @Peter  
If you are on server, I know the add-on JSU has a custom field location.
