Custom visuals not displaying

To begin, I have PBI Desktop version 2.42 64-bit, and cannot get the latest version (company policies, slow beaurocracy...). We are not using the Web version at all.   All of this works on my home ...

    PBI Desktop 2.42 doesn't support API 1.6.0.

    I'd recomend that you to force IT department to update Power BI Desktop (June release is comming soon).

     

    Another option is to decrease API version to 1.3.0. However, it might produce some issues.

Changing to API 1.3.0 seems to take care of it, thanks!

 

I'll try to request IT get us the latest version, but it's been over 5 months for them to update the main software I use, so I don't expect anything.
