    This looks to be a bug in the February 2024 release. Downgraded to December release and it works in Desktop again. The Service still does not work, but we are not going to downgrade the entire service for this. Should be resolved in March release according to Microsoft support.

Strange it doesn't take a .geojson file anymore. You think it's temporary?

I'm honestly not sure. Prior to changing the file type, I had downgraded to the December 2023 release and when I did that, the .geojson file worked fine. This week, I was informed by their support team that a new version had come out with a fix, so I downloaded the latest version per their instructions. With the latest version, the .geojson stopped working again. After that, the support rep had my try changing the file type, and that resolved it. The file now works in both desktop and on the service.

 

I suppose if it breaks again, the first thing I will try will be reverting back to a .geojson file.
