Is it possible to have a satellite layer in Appfarm’s built-in Maps without using Mapbox?

Hi,

I do not believe this is possible without using Mapbox. In order to add a satellite layer do the following:

At the bottom of the documentation (Map | Appfarm Documentation
), there is a section called Layer Type: Map. This section is relevant for adding different layers to the map.

It is possible to connect a satellite layer from Mapbox by setting it up as a layer in your own Mapbox Studio account (Console | Mapbox). Create a style in Mapbox and then set this style URL in the “File” property in the map component in Appfarm.

Just remember that you also need to add api.mapbox.com as an Image Source in the Environment Settings.

Let me know if this does not answer or solve your inquiry :slightly_smiling_face:

Kind regards;

Hi Ulrik,

Thanks for the quick reply! I checked as well, and Mapbox really seemed to be the best way to do it.

Thanks again! :blush:
