## 2. Import your map section

​We recommend using Google Map to create your KML files.
Important: The KML section can **manage up to 1000 points**.
Therefore your KML file must not contain more than 1000 items in order for your section to behave correctly.

Only the **100 first points of the map** will be displayed at the launch of the section. To display the next 100 locations on the Map, you need to scroll down the locations list-view in order to load more. You can repeat the process for the next 100 locations (this applies only to KML sources).

There is two options to import KML files into your backend.

**To upload a file**:
1. Upload the file on your computer
