This is based on the custom web component esri-map-view.

  • esri-map-view opening shortcode tag for a 2D map.
  • height: indicate the height you want for your map. You must provide a height. The width will automatically scale to the full page width of your page or post.
  • apikey: include your API key to authenticate service requests with ArcGIS services.
  • basemap: indicate the basemap style you want to use. Select from available basemap styles. This is optional and will default to osm/standard. This attribute is ignored if webmap is set.
  • webmap: select an ArcGIS web map item ID. If this is provided the basemap attribute is ignored.
  • viewpoint: Indicate an initial viewpoint to focus the map. This is a string of 3 comma-separated numbers expected: latitude (y), longitude (x), and levelOfDetail (LOD). Example: “22.7783,34.1234,9”. You should set this if you set a basemap. You do not need to set this if you set webmap as the web map’s initial viewpoint would be used. If you do set viewpoint and webmap then this setting will override the initial viewpoint of the web map.
  • layers: Select layers to add on top of the map using either full URL to the feature service on an ArcGIS server (must be public) or the ArcGIS Online item ID of a public layer. Multiple layers are separated with comma ,.
  • symbol: Indicate a symbol to use to mark the location of the initial viewpoint. This is the fully qualified URL to a 64×64 px PNG image. CORS is respected when accessing the image. You can also specify green-pin to use a green map pin as the symbol.
  • popupinfo: If symbol is set, tapping the image will show a pop-up. This is the content for that pop-up.
  • popuptitle: If symbol is set, tapping the image will show a pop-up. This is the title for that pop-up.
  • search: Include a search widget by indicating where on the map view it should appear. The valid values for this attribute are top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right. If this attribute is empty/missing or an invalid value then a search widget will not show.
  • [/esri-map-view]: Closing tag is required. Do not forget the closing tag!
