Registering for a Mapbox account

In order to use the Beautiful Maps - Mapbox plugin, you'll first need to register for an account on the Mapbox website (link here).

Mapbox is a paid service, but they have a very generous free tier. You can see full details of their pricing at this link.

Creating an access token

Once you've registered for an account, you'll need to generate an access token. Navigate to the 'Access tokens' section of your dashboard and click on the 'Create a token' button and give your token a name.

Token security

It is highly recommended that you restrict your access token to the URL of your Bubble app. You can do this by adding the URL of your Bubble app to the URL field in the 'Token Restrictions' section:

Your Mapbox access token will be visible in your browser's developer tools. If you do not restrict usage to a certain URL, anyone can use your token.

You'll need to add this access token once you've installed the plugin (see the 'Adding the access token page').
