Trying to add a map widget to search page - is it possible?

Hello, I was wondering, how would you add any widget to the search page?

Apparently CRM cards don’t give you this option. I tried the mapbox-api sample project to try to add a map widget, and it only gave me the option to add widgets to a contact or company page.

Is there any way you can add a widget to the search page? My goal is to add a Mapbox map where I can view companies based on the current search results.

Hi @ChrisSosa1337,

it’s definetely possible to do this but it’s not that “just copy&paste”.

I’d suggest to either use HubDB if you want to display static and not CRM-influenced data or custom objects if you want to use CRM information.

I’ve build a map example in the “from stagnant to scalable” Developer HUG with HubDB and Custom Objects. While I’ve used Google Maps and the Maps APIs you could use this as an idea how to implement Mapbox into your search template.

Also note that Custom Objects are available only in Enterprise tier. HubDB is available in CMS Professional and Marketing Enterprise.

best,

Anton
