Microsoft Copilot map entries schema

This section documents the map entries data returned by the Microsoft Copilot endpoint: business and place data auto-extracted from Copilot’s local entity data (primarily Google), part of the Copilot response so no separate API call is needed. For use cases, pricing context, and copy-paste examples, see the Copilot shopping API page on the product site — it documents map entries alongside shopping cards.

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"
}
