Create a map by postcode

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a map showing the locations of properties by postcode.

 

I have a Sharepoint list with one of the columns as postcodes.

 

In Power Bi, I have selected the map visual and selected Postcode as the location. Under Column tools, and data category I have selected postal code. The map isn't showing any locations. How can I show the postcode location on the map?

 

Thanks

Hi @Elliottd,

I don't use maps as often as I did in the past but I'd usually add the country as well. There could more than one countries that are sharing the same postal code.
