How To Embed a map into Microsoft sway


Sway is the latest addition to the Office suite, which works or online as well as via mobile apps. Using it, you can create scrolling presentations, which Microsoft calls ‘sways’ (see the ‘Make presentations using Microsoft Sway’.You can now embed online content (such as videos, audio and maps) into your sways. We’ll show you how to embed a map of your chosen location using Google Maps.

First, go to www.sway.com, click ‘Sign in’ at the top right and log in with your Microsoft (Outlook or Hotmail) account. Click My Sways at the top right and select the sway you want to add the map to. Alternatively, click the three dots at the top right and click Create New. To add a new Embed field (where you will place the map), click the ‘+’symbol at the bottom left of any section, then click Embed. A section will appear containing the text ‘Paste an embed code here’ (see screenshot).

Now open Google Maps (www.google.com/maps) and type the address you want in the top-left search field. Click the cog icon at the bottom right, then ‘Share or embed map’. Next, click the ‘Embed map’ tab and copy the link at the top (which is the embed code) by clicking it, then pressing Ctrl+C. Open your sway, click the ‘Paste an embed code here’ text, then press Ctrl+V to paste the code. Click anywhere on the right hand pane to preview how the map looks in your sway.
