Note

Bing Maps Local Insights API retirement

The Bing Maps Local Insights API is deprecated and will be retired on 9/30/2024. To avoid service disruptions, all implementations using Bing Maps Local Insights API will need to be updated to use Azure Maps by 9/30/2024.

Azure Maps is Microsoft's next-generation maps and geospatial services for developers. Azure Maps has many of the same features as Bing Maps for Enterprise, and more. To get started with Azure Maps, create a free Azure subscription and an Azure Maps account. For more information about azure Maps, see Azure Maps Documentation. For migration guidance, see Bing Maps Migration Overview.
