Tileset recipes

A tileset recipe is a JSON document composed of configuration options that tell Mapbox Tiling Service (MTS) how to turn tileset source data into vector tiles. Recipes allow you to specify details like:

• The minimum and maximum zoom levels at which you want the features in your tilesets to be visible.
• How much you want to simplify the geometry of your features.
• How you want to union your features based on their attributes.
• Expression-style filtering of data.
• Other data aggregation and manipulation functionality.

Recipes must be constructed according to the rules in the Recipe specification. To see example recipes for frequently-requested use cases, see the Recipe examples page.
