Set Up the Mapping Service for Contextual Addresses

A contextual address is marked with an orange triangle, the More icon. When users hover over the triangle, an icon appears, which they can click to display the address on a map.

Set Up Mapping Service

You can specify the mapping service to be used to display the map.

1. In the Setup and Maintenance work area, go to the Manage Application Toolkit Administrator Profile Values task in the Application Extensions functional area.

2. Search for the Mapping Service for Contextual Addresses (ATK_CONTEXT_ADDRESS_MAP_OPTION) profile option.

3. In the Profile Values section, enter a full URL of a mapping service in the Profile Value field.

   Caution: By default, the Profile Value field is blank. Until you enter a valid value for this profile option, users continue to get an error when they try to open a map for any contextual address.

   Here are a few examples of mapping service URLs:

   • http://maps.google.com/maps?output=embed&q=

   • http://maps.live.com/default.aspx?where1=

   • http://bing.com/maps/?v=2&encType=1&where1=

   Tip: You can include parameters in the URL. For example, to avoid a locator box in Google Maps, you can add &iwloc=& to the URL. So, the mapping service URL you would enter in the Profile Value field is: http://maps.google.com/maps?iwloc=&&output=embed&q=
