 ### Online services
+When [creating a new <MainPlatformName /> project](../../manage/create-project/#create-a-project-in-qgis) from scratch, the default background map uses <MainPlatformName /> vector tile service. Other online vector tile services can be added to the project in QGIS, but keep in mind they come with their own terms of use.
 
-Let's see how we can add *ESRI Basemap* vector tile (QGIS 3.16+):
+To add a vector tile service:
 1. In QGIS, navigate to the **Vector Tiles** in the **Browser** panel
 2. Right-click on **Vector Tiles** and select **New Generic Connection**
-3. Set the parameters of the **Vector Tiles connection**:
-   - **Name**: *ESRI Basemap*
-   - **URL**: `https://basemaps.arcgis.com/v1/arcgis/rest/services/World_Basemap/VectorTileServer/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}.pbf`

-   Press **OK**.
