Filled map with postal/zip codes stopped working

Hi,   I have a Power BI dashboard that uses the Filled map visual to show postal/zip code areas in the Netherlands. This suddenly stopped working, the visual does not show the postal code areas any...

    Hi,

     

    v-easonf-msft: the problem has solved itself, the filled maps worked again for some reason. Maybe there was a bug in Power BI or Bing Maps that has been fixed in the meantime. 

     

    Watsky: unfortunatly ArcMaps is currently unavailble at my organization. But it could me a good alternative for the future. Thanks for the tip!

Watsky: Thanks Watsky! Just the first four numbers (1012), so all postal codes starting with 1012.

 I'm not familiar with the Netherlands codes but is this what you're looking for? I have three codes just as a test but the blue area is indicated as 1012.

    Watsky Yes, that is what I use as Anonymous  the 4 numbers of the code (no letters). I will try what you just send. You dont add the country to the postal code if I am correct? so the variabele just consists of the numbers 1012 (no ",NL" or ",Netherlands")?
