Filled Map with Push Pins

Hello everyone,

 

I have a client who's wanting a Filled Map to show a color gradient comparing sales by state. What he wants also is Push Pins in the map for his top X clients. I explored around with map options and really couldn't find what I was looking for. The closest thing I could get to was the ARCGIS map that allowed me to add push pins, but the process was manually entering addresses. I want something where I drag and drop a field, because depending on the slicer selection, his top X clients will change. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Hello @amitchandak ,

 

Thank you for responding. I'm not refuting the ability on Arc GIS to add pin, but I cannot drop a field into a well, so that it updates automatically. Like I said, I have to add the pins manually, which is where it says to type in the keywords. Depending on my slicer selections, the top companies may change. I attached a screenshot from the Arc GIS documentation you sent.

Here's a screenshot of roughly what I'm looking for:

I used a reference layer, but I want the states to be a color gradient based upon sales, and the push pins (which I added manually in the example) to be dynamically based on the customer's address field. So if I change the the slicer to, for example sales of product A, my top 5 customers who use product A will adjust accordingly. That's the feature that I can't seem to find in Power BI map options.

Hi, did you figure this out?
