ArcGIS Maps for Power BI (Preview) Discussion
Helper Ichrisu - thanks for the suggestions! Some of those are in the works, and we'll look into the others. Regarding #5 - the 1500 limit is only for locations that go to the Esri World Geocoding Service. You'll be able to tell these apart because they come back as points. Locations that come back as polygons (such as states, ZIP codes, countries, etc.) are processed through the Esri geoenrichment services and have a higher limit.
sjahta - this is a known issue that we are tracking. Should be fixed soon. Thanks for passing it along!
Advocate IVThe big issue that is stopping us from adopting these maps is that the tooltips do not go past the edge of the visual. This functionality works fine with the standard maps. Is this as issue that is being worked on scottball? We also have an issue with someone being able to export our Lat and Long data that is our IP. Whilst there is the blunt tool to be able to prevent this on the service there is no way to be able ot stop this in PBI Embeded. Is there any way that you are able to provide control over the Exporrt Data function for this visual?
Thank you.

dcresp - ArcGIS Maps for Power BI is a special custom visual, but alas - we are still a custom visual. Only native visuals allow tooltips outside of their sandboxed windows. We are working to make the tooltips smarter so they don't extend into unviewable areas, which should help the issue somewhat.
Regarding the export option - that's something we'll have to look into. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

Thanks for the feedback scottball. The tooltips one is an issue as limited space on a page means that often a map does not take up a large part of a page so anything that can be done on this would help.
As you can imagine we are not at all happy with the idea that an external user that we give access to a dashboad can download potentially thousands of lat longs that have taken us a huge investment to build up. We have a general issue with the lack of control over the Export Data function within Power BI but it is a particuarly large issue when it comes to mapping. It has been posted as an idea but does not seem to have got anyfeedback from Microsoft Anonymous are you able to shed any light on this one?

scottball is mapping based on boundaries coming for countries outside of the US soon? Also will we be able to map on boundaries other than zip / post codes. It would be good if we could map on suburb boundaries as this is somthing that the native mapping does not allow for in Australia.
