RenderV2_GetMapTile (new)
Description :  The `Get Map Tiles` API enables users to request map tiles in either vector or raster formats, typically for integration into a map control or SDK. Supported tile types include Azure Maps road tiles and real-time Weather Radar tiles. By default, the Azure Maps [Web SDK](/azure/azure-maps/about-azure-maps#web-sdk) uses vector tiles for rendering its web map control.

view:
{
Description: The View parameter (also called the "user region" parameter) allows you to show the correct maps for a certain country/region for geopolitically disputed regions. Different countries/regions have different views of such regions, and the View parameter allows your application to comply with the view required by the country/region your application will be serving. By default, the View parameter is set to “Unified” even if you haven’t defined it in the request. It is your responsibility to determine the location of your users, and then set the View parameter correctly for that location. Alternatively, you have the option to set ‘View=Auto’, which will return the map data based on the IP address of the request. The View parameter in Azure Maps must be used in compliance with applicable laws, including those regarding mapping, of the country/region where maps, images and other data and third party content that you are authorized to access via Azure Maps is made available. Example: view=IN. Please refer to [Supported Views](https://aka.ms/AzureMapsLocalizationViews) for details and to see the available Views. ,
