Can Map chart in PowerBI be used for Print and Social Media?

[asifrasool]

Hi Everyone, we are located in Germany and are are building an analyis on map chart and the aim is that we should publish this in print and social media. But on the map chart at the bottom it is copy writed by Microsoft. Are we allowed to publish our design over the map in social and print media or should we do a custom design using Python and some liberaries.
A reply from Microsoft representative (Community Support) would be highly appriciated. Screenshot is attached for your understanding


Kind Regards.

Microsoft copyrights the maps in Power BI, which can limit their use in external publications.

For your specific case, it would be best to consult the Microsoft Power BI licensing terms or contact Microsoft support directly for a definitive answer. Generally, if you need to use maps without copyright concerns, creating custom maps using Python libraries like Matplotlib, Plotly, or Geopandas might be a good alternative. These libraries offer flexibility and control over the design and usage rights of your maps.
