Map Views

Map Views enables users to capture and save a snapshot of their curated map, including layers, filters, current position, zoom level, tilt, current bearing, and basemap. This allows users to return to a dashboard or record and quickly pick up where they left off. Users can also share their views with team members, or request an admin to share them across the entire dashboard or record when useful.

Saved Attributes

Each Map View preserves the following:

• Current position
• Current zoom level
• Current tilt
• Current bearing
• Included layers
• Included map filters
• Included basemap

How to Create a Map View

1. Configure your map as desired.

2. Open the Map Views panel from the main menu.

3. Click New View.

4. Enter a name for your view.

5. (Optional) To save only part of your curated map, click Advanced.

6. Toggle off any map features you do not want to save.

7. Click Save View.

Map View Actions

Use the three-dot menu beside a map view to manage it. The menu only shows actions available for that view, based on its sharing state, ownership, your permissions, and the profile's sharing settings.

Action	Description
Share	Shares the view with other users by creating a share code or (where permitted) making it available to everyone for this record or dashboard.
Unshare	Removes sharing from a view you shared previously.
Set as Default	Sets the selected view as the default view that loads first when this map opens.
Clear Default	Clears the current default view.
Get Share Code	Copies the code for a view shared by code. This action is available when sharing by code is enabled.
Remove Shared View	Removes a view shared by another user from your list without deleting the original view.
Update	Saves your current map state (position, zoom, tilt, bearing, layers, filters, and basemap) to the active view.
Delete	Permanently removes a view you are permitted to delete.

When an action takes time, its status appears beside the map view name, for example Applying..., Sharing..., or Deleting.... A notification confirms successful apply, default, share, unshare, and delete actions, or reports when an action fails.
