I am using bing maps REST services and I need to add pushpins but surprisingly it's giving me a hard time. I found out how to easily add pushpins in AJAX services, but that would need me to include scripts and stuff to my pages which I'd really rather skip. I tried searching the internet for information on how to add pushpins in REST ( or simply an iframe with a URL ) but I failed to find any useful such. Does anyone know how I can add pushpins in REST?
EDIT: I'm using dynamic maps based on this link http://www.bing.com/maps/embed/viewer.aspx?showCopyright=false&cp=43.835109710693~25.957630157471&lvl=1&w=250&h=350&sty=r
Assuming that you are using the Bing Maps Imagery REST service, you will be able to add pushpin based on the URL parameters, see the MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff701724.aspx
Here is an sample request that will allow you to add pushpins, take a look at the pp
parameter:
If you are using embedded maps, here is the list of parameters: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee692180.aspx
