Accessing map extent in ArcGIS visual
HI greggenna,
Unfortunately, current Power BI does not provide a feature to direct extract the current map extent (latitude and longitude) from an ArcGIS visual embedded in a dashboard. This is because the visual itself is interactive element that does not expose its properties through the interface.
For this scenario, you might consider alternative approaches to achieve a similar result. e.g. you can use other visuals like slicers or filters where users can select a specific region, and then use those selections to filter on your table records to switch the data ranges dynamically. (this approach would require some form of mapping between user selections and the corresponding lat/long values)
