Salesforce Maps URL Parameters

Query Parameters

Query parameters take the form of a standard URL with an attached query string.

Note:

• If you need to locate your list of layer Ids, you can do so either by creating a tab for the Salesforce Maps object or you can use SOQL to query all record Ids of the given object.
• All the above-listed parameters except layerid can only be used when Plotting a Record via a Static URL. When plotting Marker Layer via a Static URL, markers will plot as per the configuration of the marker layer. 

Using Query Parameters

Plotting a Record via a Static URL

This example plots a single record with the given base object, tooltip settings, zoom, and color settings.

Plotting a Marker Layer via a Static URL

This example plots a given Marker Layer. Note that you can find this layer id by creating a tab for the Salesforce Maps Marker Layer object and reviewing your layers. At that point, you can get the object ID from the URL.

Please note In the enhanced user experience, there are subtle changes to how we’re handling URLs to launch Maps - specifically to proximity parameters:

• if proximityRadius or proximityUnit is included in the URL, proximityOn=true doesn’t need to be included
• If either proximityRadius or proximityUnit is included in the URL, but not the other, we’ll derive the unspecified value from the user’s settings who launched the URL
• If proximityAffectMarkerVisiblity is specified in the URL, but proximityRadius or proximityUnit aren’t specified, we’ll derive the unspecified values from the user’s settings who launched the URL
