Hello!  
I am building an app to display various information for an e-bike I am building, but the most important part is using google maps bicycle API for directions. I already connected the google maps API to Thunkable but I can’t figure out how to input directions and get navigation like in the google maps app. Is there any way to do this? Is there an example of someone putting in a location into the maps component and then getting directions as i travel?

Hi angel0, welcome to Thunkable! 🎉

Be sure to check out our posts about [How to ask Great Questions v2.0](https://community.thunkable.com/t/how-to-ask-great-questions-v2-0/2689983/1), our [Community Guidelines](https://community.thunkable.com/t/community-guidelines/78/8), and our [Docs](https://docs.thunkable.com/) as you get started.

With our basic maps integration and the basic Google Maps API, I am not sure you can add directions as you are describing. This may be best done with one of Google’s directions APIs ([API Picker &nbsp;|&nbsp; Google Maps Platform &nbsp;|&nbsp; Google for Developers](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/api-picker)) and displaying the map in a web viewer? It will take some experimentation.
