Using Weather Map Backgrounds in Intelligent Maps

zettlert

Hello!

I attended the SWUG event in Chicago last year and got a lot of great insight. One of the presenters at the event mentioned the soon-to-be released ability of using external URL sources for background images in Intelligent Maps. Specifically, he mentioned the idea of using weather map URLs to underlay below nodes, node groups, etc. Now that the feature has been released, I'd love to try and accomplish this but I haven't had any lucking finding any weather map URLs that are accepted. Has anyone else been able to do so?

The 5MB limit can be changed in the Advanced Config pages. Large image sizes will affect page load. This for version 2025.1 and newer (GA for 2025.1 dropping in 4 days, Feb 11th)

Thanks for the prompt reply!

I had tried using that link, as well, but received the following error.

how are you doing it?

Well... Figured that error out on my own. Helps to check firewall policies. Sorry for that false alarm.

That said, the goalpost moved a bit and now I'm getting this error. Any idea where to tweak this limit at?
