Properties

type

type: "Marker"

---

coordinates

coordinates: LngLatTuple[][]

---

groupId?

optional groupId: null | string

The ID of the element group that the element belongs to. For elements that are not part of a group, this will be null.

---

color?

optional color: string

The color of the element in some CSS-like format.

Example

"#ABC123";
"rgb(255, 0, 0)";
"hsl(200, 100%, 50%)";

Default

"#C93535"

---

name?

optional name: null | string

The element's name. For elements that can show a label or text on the map (e.g. a Place or Text element) this is the text that will be shown.

For elements such as Polygons or Paths, the name is what is shown when the element is selected by clicking on it.

---

description?

optional description: null | string

Text describing the element, which is shown in an element's popup when it is selected.

Note that some elements are not selectable on the map, such as Notes, Text and Markers, so their description will not be shown.

---

attributes?

optional attributes: Record<string, unknown>

A set of key-value pairs that can be used to store arbitrary data about the element.

This is most useful for associating additional data with an element that is not part of the element's core data, such as a Place's address or some other data.

---

interaction?

optional interaction: "default" | "locked"

Whether the element is interactive.

The default interaction mode means that the element can be selected and edited by the user, if it was created by the SDK or by the user using a tool.

If the interaction mode is locked, the element will not be editable by the user, which is often used for elements that you don't want the user to edit or move by accident.

Elements that were created by the map author (i.e. not during an SDK "session") are not editable and have special behaviour depending on their name, description and attributes.

Default

"default"

---

opacity?

optional opacity: number

The opacity of the marker, between 0 and 1.

Default

1

---

size?

optional size: number

The size of the marker, used in conjunction with the zoom to determine the actual size of the marker.

Default

10

---

zoom?

optional zoom: number

The zoom level at which the marker was created. This is combined with the size to determine the actual size of the marker.

When creating a marker, if you don't supply this value it defaults to the current zoom of the map when you call createElement.
