Map details

[BillyL14]

Hi

is there some add on that is needed to view maps in more detail? I have seen maps in alteryx that have landmarks and state lines etc. My maps always look like this.  

Thanks

You have a option to add a base map to bring in more details. By selecting a map style in the below highlighted option

After selection

Hope this helps 🙂

Hi @BillyL14 

There are few maps around 8 or so which comes default with installation. You wouldnt need to do anything.

Check and all the maps.

Hi @BillyL14 

One more option you can try is

Menu Bar > Options > User settings > Edit user settings > Dataset defaults > Reference maps

And you can try there too.

Your PC connect the Internet?

Alteryx's Map have to access the Internet.
