Assign data columns to vector map

To display data in a widget, you must assign the relevant data source columns to the required widget elements (for example, to the X-axis).

A vector map allows you to interact with a vector-based online map and to visualize geographic areas of interest.

Even without any data assignments, based on the template chosen, you can select regions on the map. This allows you to trigger selection events and to filter other widgets.
