What are Friendly Names and Location Names?
Location Names are how you can filter and view individual locations within the application. They can also be changed to allow a "Friendly Name" structure to exist; For chains where the official Google name of every location is identical (e.g. "Starbucks"), having the friendly name concept is of critical importance.
Note: These naming structures are entirely internal - We push none of this information to Google.
Single Location Assignment:
- In Manage Locations, open the detail pane for the location that you will add a friendly name to.
- Going to the Location Details tab, you can then add the Friendly Name and save.
Bulk Location Assignment:
- In the Manage Location in Bulk dashboard, go to the brown Platform tab and let the sheet load.
- Once loaded, using the Friendly Name column, you can assign each of your locations their own alias.
- Once finished, use the red Update button in the right-hand corner to save your changes.
