Hey there @ihelps.phzv

This is a great question. You would need to use a Geo coding API to take your geographical coordinates and turn them into an address. Google’s api is very easy to get started with but can get costly quick if you go over there free plan. There are also others on the Internet I would encourage you to do a quick Google search and see which product that your needs best. If you don’t need an address you can simply send the coordinates using the share block.
