Dynamic reference layer in ArcGIS
- 6 years ago
Hi evolu6ion ,
Based on my test and researching, I think it can't be implement to change color based on data from Power BI without squares in ArcGIS. Currently, it is the best way to use a square to display color.

Hi v-xuding-msft ,
Thanks for your answer.
So if I understand you correctly, this means that in order to have the squares being displayed with different colors depending on data, I have to insert the data directly in ArcGIS (Pro or Online) and do the formatting outside of Power BI?
Many thanks for your help.

With the answer from v-xuding-msft and my further researches, I would suggest that it is definitely not possible to make the reference layer change some of its squares based on data in Power BI. If the layer fits specific area (such as postal codes or so), it is possible, but not with custom reference layer that display as in my example squares with no geospecific borders.
If anybody has a solution to make this custom reference layer adjusts its color based on data in Power BI, your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
