Add informational cards to pins on a map

Easily add cards to maps in your canvas apps to show details about pinned locations. When a user selects a pin, a card pops up with information from the data source you bound to the map control. Any column in the data source (for example, an Excel table) can be shown as a field on the card.

Prerequisites

  1. Create a canvas app and make sure it meets the geospatial prerequisites.
  2. Insert a map.
