Filtering spatial data

Hi friends, I am making a custom shape map of all electoral divisions in australia using a topojson file. When I generate ther topojson map it (understandably) maps every electoral divisoon in Australia. But im only interested in mapping 1 of them. Is there any way to filter the data so just the electoral division im interested in is mapped? Any help much appreciated!

Hello @Anonymous ,

When you bring the data into PowerBI could you apply a step in PowerQuery to filter to only the electoral division you are wanting to map?

From PowerBI desktop go to Edit Queries > select your query > apply the filter > Close & Apply.
