How to Use Address Auto-Complete in GoHighLevel Forms and Surveys
ClickUp users who are migrating to GoHighLevel often want fast, accurate ways to capture addresses in their funnels, forms, and surveys. The address auto-complete feature uses Google Maps to suggest locations as a user types, reducing errors and speeding up the submission process.
This guide walks you step by step through enabling and using address auto-complete inside your GoHighLevel account so you can capture clean, structured location data on every submission.
What Is Address Auto-Complete in GoHighLevel?
Address auto-complete in GoHighLevel is a built-in option for form and survey fields that connects to Google Maps. As the contact starts typing an address, Google-powered suggestions appear, helping them quickly choose the correct location.
When enabled, this feature can:
- Speed up the form and survey completion process
- Improve address accuracy and reduce typos
- Standardize address formatting for your CRM records
- Help your team with routing, shipping, and service areas
The functionality is controlled at the field level in form and survey builders within GoHighLevel.
Requirements for Using GoHighLevel Address Auto-Complete
Before you turn on the address auto-complete feature, make sure you meet these basic requirements inside GoHighLevel:
- You must have access to the Forms or Surveys builder in your account.
- Your form or survey must contain a supported address-related field.
- You need a stable internet connection for Google Maps suggestions to load.
No additional coding or external plugins are needed because the entire integration is managed natively within GoHighLevel.
Supported Field Types for GoHighLevel Auto-Complete
Address auto-complete only works with specific field types that are compatible with Google Maps. When you build a form or survey in GoHighLevel, make sure you are using one of the following field types:
- Address field
- Location-style fields specifically intended to capture street, city, state, and postal code information
Other text fields, such as generic single line text or paragraph fields, will not trigger the auto-complete suggestions. Always choose a dedicated address field when setting up your form or survey.

When a user selects one of the suggestions from Google Maps, the address components are stored in your GoHighLevel contact record. Typically, this includes:

- State or region
- Postal or ZIP code
- Country
Because the address is standardized, it becomes easier to filter, segment, and run automation based on location within your GoHighLevel CRM.

To get the best results from the Google Maps integration in GoHighLevel, use these best practices:
