Hello,
I need help evaluating the feasibility of a client requirement.
I would like to display two different layers within a single visual in Power BI:
Lower Layer:
Polygons loaded directly from a GeoJSON file. These polygons should be colored based on a numeric value contained in the JSON (the higher the value, the more saturated the color should be).
Upper Layer:
Shapes representing road works (for now, let's assume these will be points).
I managed to build a visual containing both layers, but the reference layer (the polygons) remains the default light blue, and I haven't been able to change its color.
I also tried importing two separate datasets in table format (one for points and one for polygons). However, when I assign polygon geometry to the "Location" field, the points with latitude/longitude don't display correctly.
Could you please advise if this requirement is achievable in Power BI and, if so, what steps I should follow?
I truly appreciate your support.
Thank you!

Hi @Ekaterina13 ,
-- Polygons loaded directly from a GeoJSON file. These polygons should be colored based on a numeric value contained in the JSON...
-- I managed to build a visual containing both layers, but the reference layer (the polygons) remains the default light blue, and I haven't been able to change its color.
Check the fillcolor field in the .geojson file provided as an example in the reference docs:
AzureMapsCodeSamples/Static/data/geojson at main · Azure-Samples/AzureMapsCodeSamples · GitHub
Add a reference layer to Azure Maps Power BI visual - Style configuration

Thank you, "fillcolor" helped me to have a custom colors on the polygons!
