Custom Shape Maps Unexpected Error

deldersveld yep that was it. Thanks. I assumed that a URL that ended in a file name with a file extension was a link to the actual file with that name and extension. Silly me. Apparently github is different from the entire rest of the internet.

deldersveld Thanks! :smileyhappy:

As Anonymous said it really looks like you are saving the right file.

Next I'll have to give QGIS a try because I'm having to luck with mapshaper converting other GeoJSON files into usable in PBI TopoJSON files. Thanks!

deldersveld I have a question about your us-albers.counties.json file?

I can't figure out how to plot the correct county in the correct state?

Here is some sample data

These are the 3 most popular county names

(btw these are not all their occurences - I kind of narrowed them down to just the SE/4 of the country)

In both PBI's regular and filled maps and in the ArcGIS visual you basically use the County, State field and you get this result...

(Note that if you don't use this field you'll get incorrect results!)

Now when we go to the topojson file - it would not plot anything using the County, State field

If i use only the County it plot like this - it plots Counties with the same name but in states which are not even included

Any advice will be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I would try using a column that concatenates the county and state, e.g. "Hamilton County, OH" rather than the raw county name.

Sean Did you ever find a solution to this? I am having the same issue.
