Bing Maps in MS Teams?

Hi I have two quick queries using the built in Maps   I am based in NZ and Bing often thinks that the address is in USA. Our address field often includes a post code, but can I direct the report to...

thanks for helping.

 

I added a concantenate measure so address plus " New Zealand"

 

Is it me or is Bing is useless? See the image. The Location clearly says what I want. Address plus NZ. But Bing puts in near Copenhagen? If you google the address. Perfect Map. 

 

Suggestions?

Hey Pmorg73 

Are you using the correct field?
Looks like you are using Job Info while you need First Location.

Cheers!

    yes the map is only looking at "Location" field. In the image I had selected a table just to cross check the measure was adding the address correctly.

     

    If I google that address I get a map straight away on the correct street. I then went to Edge and used Bing and it does not load any maps.

     

    As I am sharing this report in MS Teams I find the map does not work at all in there anyway. Do you know if it should work in Teams?

     

    I know that the ArcGIS map type only works in the BI desktop environment so does not work in Teams, so not an option.

     

    So I am concluding that my map may be something to remove from the report?

    Hey Pmorg73 

    I have no knowledge of the integration with MS Teams. 

    Sorry.
