Filter map content using user GPS

Hello,

 

If there is any possibility to give information to Power BI about localization of the device on with user view the report and based on this filter map automatically?

 

Maybe in Power BI Service or somewhere when a report is embedded? 

I am new in Power BI and wonder how to communicate Power Bi report (especially initial filters state) with the rest of the world.

Hi, @Anonymous 

 

It is unavailable to automatically get information about location of the user device and filter a map visual based on it in Power BI currently. You may try to get the location by scripts and use url filters to filter the map visual. 

 

Best Regards

Allan
