Well, you are 90% of the way there if you are getting the image. There is a header in the response Data-Capture-Date-Range
that provides a range when the image was captured. For example: 7/31/2022-9/1/2023
. Note that satellite imagery rarely has a single date and is usually tagged with a date range due to imagery being captured and processed in batches and some map tiles containing multiple images from different dates, stitched together to create a seamless map.
Retrieve acquisition date of satellite image from Azure Maps API

Hello,
I have successfully used the Render - Get Map Imagery Tile feature of Azure Maps API to obtain RGB satellite images. However, I would like to know how to retrieve the acquisition date for the image instead.
Is there a dedicated service in Azure Maps API that I can use to fetch the metadata for the satellite image and obtain the acquisition date?
Thank you.
