Get Geocodes for Addresses in Your Records

Geocodes help your sales and marketing teams find nearby prospects and assign territories and campaigns. After you activate a geocode rule, verify that geocodes were added to your accounts, contacts, and leads. Give your users access to related objects and fields so that they can review records.

User Permissions Needed

  • Verify That Geocodes Were Added to Records
    Because geocode fields aren’t typically visible on a record, after you activate a geocode rule, we recommend verifying that geocodes were added to your records.
  • Grant Permissions for Geocode Rules
    When you activate a geocode rule, give your users access to related objects and fields so that they can review new data.
  • Geocode Data Integration Rules
    Geocode rules update your accounts, contacts, and leads with geocodes.
  • Geocode Fields and Accuracy
    Geocode information identifies a location using a latitude, a longitude, and an accuracy rating. Geocode fields are available for standard addresses on accounts, contacts, and leads in Salesforce. Geocode fields aren’t visible on records, but you can view them using the Salesforce API.
