Posted on by Z_Mike1

Hello,

I'm able to create a static map with on pushpin using the Bing Maps Connector. Is there a way to add multiple pushpins to a map using the connector or do I need to call the Bing Maps API?

Thanks

Hi @Z_Mike1 ,

How do you display the static map within your app? Using a Image control?

Do you want to add multiple pushpins to a static map within your app?

Based on the needs that you mentioned, I think the Bing Maps connector could not achieve your needs. As an alternative solution, I think the Bing Maps API could achieve your needs.

The user @KickingApps has faced same issue with you, please check my response within the following thread:

https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Discussion/Multiple-pins-on-map/m-p/196441?author_id=15459

On your side, you should set the Image property of the Image control to following:

"https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/V1/Imagery/Map/"&drpBingImagerySets.Selected.Value&"/" & EncodeUrl(txtLocation.Text) & "/"& slZoom.Value &"?mapSize=" & txtImageWidth & "," & txtImageHeight & "&pp="&"36.204824,138.25292421;21;First+Point&pp=36.305578,138.306655;21;Second+Point&key=YourBingMapsKey"

More details about displaying a static Bing Map within PowerApps, please check the following blog:

More details about the Bing Maps API to create multiple pushpins, please check the following article:
