Email Address

Hello Guys!

Is there a way I can tell someones email address from Local Guides Connect account? 

And also from Google Maps Profile?

 

Thank You

 

Regards

It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

Re: Email Address

Hi @JonasKL, it is not possible to obtain a user's email address from their Google Maps profile. On Connect, email addresses are set as private information by default, and will only be made public if the community member selects the option to show their private information in "Public Statistics". This is why you can see email addresses on some Connect profiles, while on some you can't. This preference can be updated in your Local Guides settings. 

 

I'm sure you are very familiar with this by now but I will mention again that if you wish to contact other Local Guides, you can make full use of the private messaging system. 🙂

No my Dear  @JonasKL it is not possible.

while you can use Private Mgs to share anything you want (as @JeslynL mentioned above).

Always use @ before name to tag anyone on the Connect.
