SETUP GUIDE

Connect Google Maps MCP Tool with your Agent

1

Install Composio

typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/mcp @ai-sdk/openai
Install the Composio SDK and your agent framework
2

Create a session with MCP enabled

typescript
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";

const composio = new Composio();
const { mcp } = await composio.create("your-user-id", {
  toolkits: ["google_maps"],
  mcp: true,
});
Create a session scoped to Google Maps and read its MCP URL and headers
3

Connect your agent to the MCP server

typescript
import { createMCPClient } from "@ai-sdk/mcp";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from "ai";

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: { type: "http", url: mcp.url, headers: mcp.headers },
});

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai("gpt-5.6-sol"),
  tools: await client.tools(),
  prompt: "Find driving directions from Times Square to Central Park",
  stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
});

console.log(text);
await client.close();
Pass the session's MCP URL and headers to your agent and run a Google Maps request
SETUP GUIDE

Connect Google Maps API Tool with your Agent

1

Install Composio

typescript
npm install @composio/core @composio/openai openai
Install the Composio SDK, the OpenAI provider, and the OpenAI SDK
2

Create a Composio session

typescript
import OpenAI from "openai";
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from "@composio/openai";

const composio = new Composio({ provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider() });
const client = new OpenAI();

const session = await composio.create("your-user-id", { toolkits: ["google_maps"] });
const tools = await session.tools();
Initialize Composio with the OpenAI Responses provider and create a session scoped to Google Maps
3

Run Google Maps tools with your agent

typescript
let response = await client.responses.create({
  model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
  tools,
  input: [{ role: "user", content: "Find driving directions from Times Square to Central Park" }],
});

while (response.output.some((o) => o.type === "function_call")) {
  const outputs = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(session, response.output);
  response = await client.responses.create({
    model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
    tools,
    previous_response_id: response.id,
    input: outputs,
  });
}

console.log(response.output_text);
Send a request, execute the Google Maps tool calls through the session, and print the final answer

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No. Composio provides a managed OAuth app for Google Maps, so you sign in with your normal Google Maps account and approve access. If you later want the consent screen to show your own company name, you can add your own Google Maps OAuth app in the Composio dashboard, and every connection after that uses it.

Yes! Composio's Tool Router enables agents to use multiple toolkits. Learn more.

Yes. Composio is SOC 2 Type II compliant and is built to keep your Google Maps connection and credentials secure. OAuth tokens and API keys are encrypted, and sensitive customer data is protected at rest and in transit.

Composio also undergoes independent security testing and continuously monitors its systems for security threats. You can review the latest reports and policies in the Composio Trust Center.

Composio maintains and updates all toolkit integrations automatically, so your agents always work with the latest API versions.

When you connect a Google Maps account through Composio, every action runs under that account, so anything the agent creates, sends, or changes shows up in Google Maps as done by you. Keep an approval step in your prompt for actions with side effects, such as sending or deleting, and have the agent draft first.

Exactly the ones Google Maps lists on its consent screen when you connect. Review that screen before approving. If you connect a work account, your Google Maps administrator may need to approve the app first, and you can revoke the access inside Google Maps whenever you want.

Yes. Composio supports multiple connected accounts for the same app, and that works in Claude, ChatGPT, or any other assistant you connect through Composio. Give each Google Maps connection a name such as work or personal, and the assistant uses the one you mention in the request. Each account keeps its own credentials and nothing is merged.

Composio refreshes Google Maps tokens automatically, so day to day you do nothing. If you revoke access inside Google Maps, or Google Maps invalidates the session, the connection shows as expired in Composio and the agent stops acting on that account until you reconnect it, which is a single sign-in.

Composio's free Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month with no credit card, and up to 20,000 of those can run through Composio-managed apps like Google Maps. Personal Google Maps use rarely gets near that. Paid plans add higher limits and team features, and Google Maps's own pricing is unaffected.

Built-in connectors usually give one AI access to a limited set of apps. Many people use Composio because it lets their AI connect to more apps than it normally supports, or connect to multiple accounts for the same app (e.g. connect Claude to multiple Google Maps accounts).

With Composio, you connect Google Maps once and then use it across different AI assistants without setting it up separately in each one. Connect your apps to Composio once, then connect Composio to whichever AI you use, whether that's Claude, ChatGPT, Hermes, or your own custom assistant.
