How to mark locations using the Map Pin Tool

Add, customise, rename, and delete pin markers on the map

Written by Airah Oquias

The Map Pin Tool lets you mark locations by purpose — sites of interest, nearby amenities, or properties for sale within a designated area. You can customise pin icons and colours, rename individual pins, and delete them one at a time or in bulk.

Adding pin markers is available on the Advanced plan. Bulk deleting pins requires an Advanced or Enterprise plan.
