Add the Campus Map to the Campus Guide

As a Campus Cloud administrator, you can use Studio to add the campus map to the campus guide. You can put this important resource front and centre in the campus app by creating a tile to link to the map. 

To add the campus map to the campus guide: 

• Click "Studio."

• In the list of app experiences, find the experience to which you want to add the map. Then, click "Customize."

• Scroll down to the section where you want to add the map, then click "+ Add."

You'll be taken to a screen to create a new tile, which will link to the map.

• Type a name for your tile, choose a colour, and upload an image.

• For tile type, choose "Resource."

• For resource type, choose "Maps."

• Click "Save Changes." 

A new tile appears in the campus guide, which links to the campus map. The tile will be visible to anyone who uses that app experience.
