Sorry, I was talking about this statement:

I found a workaround to get the name of the custom visual so you can use it on your json file

Go to the markerplace on your browser and search for the visual:
https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps?product=power-bi-visuals

Download the .pbiviz file and open it on your code editor or wordpad.
Line 13 has the several names you'll want to use on your .json; its usually either "name" or "guid".
Line 23 has all the visuals' elements you'll want to customize on your .json.

.pbiviz of visual

Hope this helps
