Actually, both Mapbox and Aviato can help with reverse geocoding! The Mapbox "Normalize Location" action accepts coordinates as input and returns detailed address info including city, state, street address, and more. [1]
For Aviato, their "Normalize location" action finds geo-coded location data including country, region, and locality from coordinate inputs. [2] [3]
Try using your lat/long coordinates directly in either integration's location field.

Hi Andy, thanks for reaching out! Have you tried using the Google Maps Geocoding API? It can reverse geocode latitude and longitude and return the address data in JSON format.

Hi Andy! Happy to help. You just need two steps:
Generate a Google Maps API key
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/overview
Use that key with Clay’s HTTP API action

You’ll also find walkthroughs on YouTube if you search those topics.

Hi Andy, if you want find the local business based on lat long data, you can Scrape Google Maps data by using SerpAPI.
