Hi all,

I'm trying to change a web resource to use the new V8 controls. I have the below HTML that works in V7 but in V8 the map displays correctly with the current pushpin but doesn't show any of the pushpins retrieved with the odata / REST services.
I've looked in the V8 SDK and it seems to use layers for multiple pushpins but only shows examples with the test data generator.
Should this still work with V8 or do I need to change to use layers?
