Generate a Mapbox API key

To use Mapbox on your website, you’ll need a valid API key with the required APIs enabled. Please note that this guide applies only if you’re using Estatebud Connect. If you’re using the legacy WordPress plugin, contact our team and we’ll be happy to help.

Create a Mapbox account

1. Go to the Mapbox website.

2. Sign up for a new account or sign in if you already have one.

3. Once logged in, you’ll be taken to the Mapbox dashboard.

Generate an access token (API key)

1. In the Mapbox dashboard, open Tokens from the account menu.

2. You’ll see a Default public token that can be used right away, or you can click Create a token to generate a new one.

3. Give the token a name and ensure the required scopes (Styles and Tiles) are enabled.

4. Copy the token and go back to the Estatebud plugin settings, then add the key. If Estatebud is creating or maintaining your website, you may also share the key directly with our team.

Restrict the token to your domain

Restricting your API key helps prevent unauthorized use by other websites. We recommend that you complete this additional step to ensure accurate billing volumes.

1. In Tokens, select the token you want to restrict.

2. Under URL restrictions, add your allowed domains, for example:

   • https://example.com/*

   • https://www.example.com/*

3. Save your changes.
