Bing API alternative

Hi!

I have a set of addresses and I need to populate a map in one of the dashboards I am creating with them/ 

To create longtitude and latitude I used Bing API, but it has very small requests limit. The same with Google API.

Could you please let me know what is an alternative to get longtitude and latitude for adresses?

Thank you!

Hi @Maria_Maria 

You can use the InvokeAfter() function to throttle your API calls and stay within the limits
