How to show the street view of an address when I don't have latitude and longitude

There's another post here about showing the google streetview of an address but all the links are broken.

From looking at what they were doing, would I have to geocode the address and then look up the street view for those coordinates?

If all I have is an address, and I need to programmatically show the street view of the house, what is the most direct way to accomplish it?

Thanks

Basically, what you said is correct. You feed the geocoder the address and it gives you back a JSON containing the full name along with the coordinates.

Response example from the geocoder: https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=1600+Amphitheatre+Parkway,+Mountain+View,+CA

And now you have the coordinates which you can use to feed the street view.
