Map View

The map view plots each office location on an interactive world map.

Enabling

Map view is off by default to minimise external network calls. Turn it on in the property pane:

Elite Features > Show Map view

A small helper line appears below the toggle explaining the external call:

“Need Bing Maps or Google Maps instead? See the help documentation or contact help@tenantrix.io.”

How it works

• Uses Leaflet + OpenStreetMap tiles (no API key required).
• Office location strings (officeLocation field from Entra ID) are geocoded via Nominatim (nominatim.openstreetmap.org).
• Results are cached in the browser’s localStorage for 30 days - subsequent page loads use the cache.
• Only the office location name (e.g. London, UK) is sent. No personal employee data ever reaches Nominatim.
• Rate-limited to 1 request per 1.05 seconds per Nominatim’s usage policy.

Alternative map providers

Bing Maps, Google Maps, Azure Maps, and Mapbox are not bundled by default. If your organisation requires one of these, contact help@tenantrix.io for options.

Disabling network calls entirely

If your tenant blocks outbound calls to openstreetmap.org, leave the map toggle OFF. The rest of the app works without it.
