Map block
Data view
The map block plots records with latitude/longitude coordinates as pins on an interactive map. Nearby pins cluster automatically, the viewport fits your data, and extra sources let several tables share one map in distinct colors.
When to use it
- Field operations: sites, deliveries, inspections, territories.
- Store or asset locators inside an internal tool or a public link.
- Anything where "where" is the first question.
Settings
| Setting | Options | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Latitude field | number | The pin's latitude. Required. |
| Longitude field | number | The pin's longitude. Required. |
| Label field | — | Optional field shown on the pin's popup. |
| Clustering | on / off | Group nearby pins into count bubbles that split on zoom. On by default. |
| Auto-fit | on / off | Fit the viewport to all pins on load. On by default. |
| Default zoom | 1–18 | Starting zoom when auto-fit is off. |
| Viewer location | on / off | Show the viewer's own position as a dot (they're asked for permission first). Off by default. |
| Extra sources | up to 4 | Additional tables pinned on the same map, each with its own coordinate fields, color, filter, and click target. |
| Pin click | record view | The record page a pin opens when clicked. |
Coordinates must live in two number fields. Storing them as text blocks publishing — the publish check points at the exact field to fix.
Like every block, this one also has the shared block settings: a title and optional description, a header you can show or hide, auto-height, conditional visibility, and role-based visibility, plus the source table and record-filter settings shared by all data blocks.
