System Variable 981: Distance Matrix API, ClientId

Use this System Variable to connect WorkBook to a Google Distance Matrix API. This API provides information based on the recommended route between the start and end points. You can request distance data for different travel modes and in different units, such kilometers or miles. This information is useful for estimating travel time in network traffic.

You can use this API with calendar synchronization if you use Google Mail as a provider. However, you must configure it separately inside the Google Developer Console as its own API, and the configuration varies depending on how you want to use the Distance Matrix API.

After completing the configuration, you can collect the ClientID from this API and enter it in this System Variable.

This System Variable is blank by default.
