# Adding map layers manually | ||
# Adding and deleting data providers | ||
|
||
Before adding any map layers there must be at least one dataprovider and one theme. Look at Dataprovider and Theme for information. | ||
Before you can add any map layers to the service, you must have at least one data provider and theme. | ||
|
||
Open map layers, press + -symbol and choose Add a new map layer. Choose the type for the map layer. | ||
Add data provider from **Map Layers**. Click the **+** symbol and **Add data provider**. Give the data provider a name in all the desired languages and a description if needed. Then click **Add**. | ||
|
||
Input the map layer’s interface URL and if necessary username and password. Choose the interface version. Later, it’s told which version is used for which interface. | ||
Data providers can be edited when map layers are sorted by Data Provider. Click the pen icon on the right and do the necessary changes. Remember to **Save** the changes. | ||
|
||
Fill in the unique name of the map layer, which comes from the interface. Give the map layer a name and optionally a description for every desired language. | ||
Click the **Delete** button if you want to remove a data provider. There must not be any map layers in the data provider's group for it to be able to be deleted. | ||
|
||
Choose a dataprovider and theme from Select groups for the map layer. | ||
# Adding and deleting themes | ||
|
||
Opacity and scale are changed in the Visualization tab. Different map layer types have differences in visualization that are expanded on later. | ||
Before you can add any map layers to the service, you must have at least one theme and data provider. | ||
|
||
Metadata input is in the Additional tab if the map layer has any. | ||
Add theme from **Map Layers**. Click **+** and **Add theme**. Give the theme a name in all the desired languages and a description if needed. Finally click the **Add** button. | ||
|
||
Permissions are given to roles that are given to users and not to the users directly. Always give the admin role at least viewing permission and other roles the desired permissions. These are view, view in embedded map, publish and download. | ||
Theme can be edited when map layers are sorted by theme. Click the pen icon on the right and do the necessary changes. Remember to **Save** the changes. | ||
|
||
When done with configuration, press the Add-button at the bottom of the window. If the Close-button or X-button are pressed, the window will close and not save anything. Sometimes there might be some error popups, but they are not always problems that hinder the adding or viewing of the map, but it’s recommended to read its content and do the necessary adjustments. | ||
If you want to remove a theme, click **Delete**. There must not be any map layers in the theme for it to be able to be deleted. | ||
|
||
# Editing and deleting of map layers | ||
# Adding map layers | ||
|

|
||
If you want to completely delete a map layer, press the Delete button. Sometimes it's only necessary to remove permissions from map layers from roles other than admin. Before deleting a map layer it’s good to think if someone is using the map layer in a published map or will it be needed later. | ||
Add the map layer’s API URL and, if necessary, an username and password Choose the version of the interface. For vector data the common version is 1.1.0. | ||
|
||
Pressing the Add a new layer from the same service button opens a list of all the map layers of that same interface where it is easier to add map layers. Check that all of the information is correct before adding the map layer. | ||
Fill in the unique name of the map layer which comes from the interface. You can add a description in every desired language. | ||
|
||
# Different map layer types | ||
Choose a data provider and theme from **Select groups for the map layer**. | ||
|
||
WFS/OAPIF layers are vector type layers. Their common version is 1.1.0. Vector type layers can be defined to have a style made in the editor or added with JSON code. The style can be modified for point, line and area depending on the map layer. | ||
Clicking the **Add a new layer** from the same service button opens a list of all the map layers of that same interface. Check that all of the information is correct before adding the map layer. | ||

# How do I create embedded maps from Oskari? | ||
|
||
If you don’t want to set up Oskari installation, don’t worry you can still enjoy the ride. You can build fancy & tailored map views based on Published maps functionality in Oskari. This requires an Oskari installation that has enabled the Published map functionality. If you are registered to the Oskari site you want to use, add the map layers you need to the map and click Published maps. Follow the instructions and embedd the iframe code you get in the end to your website. | ||
If you don’t want to set up your own Oskari installation, you can build map views with the **Published maps** functionality in Oskari. This requires an Oskari installation that has enabled the Published map functionality. | ||

# Why are there no layers in an embedded map? | ||
|
||
Check access rights. It might be that users with guest-role (most of the people looking at embedded maps) don't have permission to see layers included in the embedded map. | ||
|
||
# How do I tailor my embedded maps? | ||
|
||
Embedded maps can be tweaked to be in contact with your web site and provide more information to users using code snippets called RPC (Remote Process Call). So you can get the map to talk with your site. See the RPC example codes or follow the workshop example. | ||
