The yellow button in the navbar is the fastest way to save useful views of your current project: maps or tables. From that one entry point you can quickly save views, update existing bookmarks, and copy links, images, legends, or a combined HTML block (link + image + legend) for reporting.
The bookmarks table itself is not shown for users below Pro level, i.e. to users only on Free or Private plans.

In this section you can learn about bookmarking and how to manage bookmarks.

To create a bookmark from anywhere, use the Navbar bookmark button. This adds a bookmark to the Bookmarks table.
After saving, the navbar bookmark button briefly shows a green tick to confirm the save.
When you save a bookmark in the session,
- a small popover opens near the button with a Description textarea and a Save button (description is optional, but useful).
- inside Existing bookmarks, you can pick a bookmark and Overwrite it with the current screen state (keeping the same bookmark number/link).
- each bookmark can then be used to copy:
- a short plain link (
?bookmark=ID) - a formatted link (HTML)
- the bookmark image
- combined HTML that includes the bookmark link, image, and legend
The Bookmarks Table#
Use the full table / report workflow when:
- you want to work across different projects
- you need more detailed tools for managing many bookmarks
-
you want to build a full report from some or all bookmarks
-
Each row is one bookmark.
- Click the checkbox to select rows.
- Click Load to recall that bookmark, restoring tabs and outputs.
- Quick load: at the very top of the Bookmarks / Reporting tab, you can type a bookmark number and press Load (or Enter) to load it directly.
- Click Copy Formatted Link to copy the bookmark's URL to the clipboard.
- Double-click on the Description field to edit it.
- Click Delete to remove the bookmark.
- Click the badge at top right when viewing a map or table to add a new bookmark to it.
- When a new current project is loaded from a URL or by changing the project dropdown, the "Project" filter in the table is pre-filled with the name of the current project.
Main Features:
- Bookmark badge - Save/remove current URL state from navbar
- Bookmarks table - Manage saved views with sorting and filtering
- Bulk operations - Select multiple bookmarks for deletion
- Editable descriptions - Double-click to edit bookmark names
- Auto-normalization - URLs cleaned and standardized for consistency
Bookmarks Table:
- Actions - Load URL, Copy link (plain), Copy formatted link (HTML), Edit URL, Delete individual bookmarks
- Copy buttons - Both create short
?bookmark=IDURLs instead of full parameter strings - Columns - Project, Description (editable), User, URL, Created, ID
- Bulk delete - Select multiple with checkboxes, delete with "Bulk:" trash button
- Badge integration - Shows bookmark ID when current view is bookmarked
URL Editor:
Click the Edit button next to any bookmark to open the URL Editor. You can edit the bookmark description (Markdown supported). The editor also provides a user-friendly interface to understand complex bookmark parameters. Instead of viewing raw query strings, you see a structured breakdown with proper labels and grouping - showing your selected project, sources, active filters (displayed as individual cards), table settings, and map configurations. The editor categorizes parameters into logical groups (Navigation, Data Selection, Filters & Processing, etc.) and displays filter pipeline details with sequential numbering and status indicators. This makes it easy to understand exactly what state each bookmark preserves without needing technical knowledge of URL parameters.
Building reports from the Bookmarks table#
The Bookmarks table lets you create professional reports by combining multiple bookmarked views with custom descriptions and variant filtering.
Requires Pro subscription
Key Features:
- Drag-and-drop reordering - Arrange slides in any order
- Markdown descriptions - Add rich text titles and explanations with heading styles, lists, and formatting
- Variant generation - Create multiple versions of the same bookmark view filtered by selected field values
- Include/Exclude toggles - Selectively include slides in your export
- HTML/PDF export - Copy formatted HTML or export PDF with clickable bookmark links and legends
- Persistent settings - Your slide order, descriptions, and include/exclude states are saved automatically
Legends:
- For maps we use the full legend
- For tables we use the relevant parts of the legend, omitting material about link and factor colours, sizes and annotation.
Variants:
- Variants simply add an extra filter on top of the bookmark’s existing filters (sources + filter pipeline). We do not change any other filters. For example, if the bookmark has 4 selected sources and you choose village=X and Y, then the X variant uses only those of the 4 sources with village=X, and the Y variant uses only those with village=Y. If a value has no data after the existing filters, no variant is produced.
Where to find the variants: when the accordion section is open, the variants appear as thumbnails above the main bookmark image, each preceded by which variable/value it represents (e.g., village: Y). On PDF export and copy to clipboard, first the original bookmark image and its legend are shown, and then each variant with its fullsize image and legend.
How to use:
- Create bookmarks of your maps and tables
- Switch to the Report tab (yellow bookmark icon)
- Click on slide descriptions to edit them (supports markdown:
# Heading,## Subheading,- List items) - Drag slides to reorder them
- Use the variant controls to generate multiple versions filtered by selected field values
- Toggle "Include/Exclude" to control which slides appear in your export
- Click "Copy HTML" (or "Export PDF") to export all included slides
- Paste into Word/Google Docs - headings and links will be preserved
