Bing map not working in Power BI samples

Bing map not working in Power BI samples, for example in Retail Analysis Sample.

Exactly bing map working when we use Postal Code - report "This Year Sales: Postal Code and Store Type".

Map not working when we use City - report "This Year Sales: City" - I've map without any point with data.

When I changed Bing Map to ArcGIS maps, then it's OK.

I checked column City in Store table: it;s type is City and example. value: "York, PA".

When I changed type this column to "adress" then i get map wit a only 2 points with data. The good result is 10 city with data.

Somebody can help me?

    Hi Zbig,

     

    Based on my test, if the type of the City column is set to "Place", then the map will work as expected. Could you go to check if it also works in your scenario? :smileyhappy:

    Yes, thank you. When column type set to Place, then work OK.

    It;'s becouse value in this field is „Pittsburgh, PA”.

     

    But in this same Microsoft samples for example  in "Sales and Marketing Sample" we have column "State" with values "California" without coma.

    In this case set "Place" no acts. Could I change values in Columns?

     

    Thank You
