Mapit allows integration with Insight - Asset management plugin by Mindville. 

This means that you can present Insight objects on the map. In order for such an object to be presented, it must have attributes in which its coordinates (latitude / longitude) are saved. 


Configuration in Mapit

  • Install the plugin "Insight - Asset management"
  • Go to the section General configuration in the Mapit Administration Panel and find the Insight block
  • Configure the integration parameters (autosave)



Configuration options:
