Hi everyone,

I’m currently building an app in **Thunkable** that allows users to **submit entries** (including a photo, a name, and their GPS location) to a connected **Google Sheet**. The idea is that all submitted entries show up later on a **map with markers** , so people can visually browse what others have uploaded and where.

I have a working input screen where users can:

- Take a photo
- Add a name
- Allow location access (via the Location Sensor)

These inputs are successfully sent to my Google Sheet. The sheet has the following columns:

- `Title`
- `Image`
- `Latitude`
- `Longitude`

This data is shown in a **detail screen** , but here I can’t get the lat and long connected to the map.

Now I’m working on a **separate screen with a Map** component, where I want to:

- Retrieve all entries from the Google Sheet
- Place a marker on the map for each row, using the `Latitude` and `Longitude`

**Here’s the issue:**

- No markers show up on the map, even though I have followed ‘working’ tutorials .
- I’m not sure which blocks I need to:
  - Converting the data
  - Add markers dynamically on every data entry

I’ve added my Cloudinary integration for photos, and the sheet seems correctly set up. I suspect the issue lies in retrieving the data in the map.

If anyone has experience with this type of functionality — displaying multiple user-generated entries on a map using a Google Sheet — I would love your advice! 🙏 I have tried a lot of different tutorials, but none have worked so far.

Thanks so much in advance,  
**Poeka**
