    Hi @Sumaira ,

     

    Several methods can achieve your needs.

    1. New Preview Feature: Interactive map control. More reference: Interactive map 

    2. Display Bing Map by BingMap Imagery API (or Google). Details: Displaying a Map using an Image Control in PowerApps and Bing Maps or Google Maps API 

    3. Map component. See: 10 Reusable Components 

     

    The following thread is the example for method 2 for your reference:

    Hope this helps.

    Hi @Sumaira ,

    Bing Map is available in classic form designer. Bind the Address field to use with this Bing map control.

    Hi @Sumaira ,

     

    Sorry, my negligence. 

    Please try to the sample code component- Map component.

    1. first replace the Map API key from here in index.ts

    2. follow the package steps to deploy the code component

    3. Add code components to a field or entity in model-driven apps

    Hope this helps.
