SharePoint Maps Web Part Migrating from Bing Maps to Azure Maps
The SharePoint Maps web part will migrate from Bing Maps to Azure Maps starting March 2026, completing by mid-April. The migration is automatic with no opt-out available. Several features will be removed.
ℹ️
Key Facts: Migration window: March 2026 to mid-April 2026 Opt-out: None available Removed: Business entity search, bird's eye view, street view Limited: Autosuggestions for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages Action required: Update network allowlists and firewall rules for Azure Maps domains
The web part will be renamed to reflect the Azure Maps branding. When bird's eye or street view is unavailable, the web part falls back to road view rather than showing an error. Site owners and admins using the Maps web part should test their pages after the migration completes and notify help desk personnel about the functionality changes.
