This section documents the map entries data returned by the Microsoft Copilot endpoint. Map entries are part of the Copilot response — no separate API call is needed.

​
Example request

Map entries are returned by default when Copilot surfaces local business data — no flag is required. 
{
  "prompt": "theme parks with craft activities near Smoky Mountains",
  "country": "US"
}
This produces a response containing the map array documented below.

​
Overview

Map entries are auto-extracted from Copilot’s local entity data (primarily Google). No additional parameters are required - map entries are included by default when available in the response.
