The only thing, that could couse that problem maybe  is the type of data that I have or because I'm not using Power bi Premuiem. I already try with diffrent sets of data. I even try to recreated the data that has been used in the video bellow  working https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ekgg3nd87MQ

I have been follow step by step the attached video and it's not working. Do you use postal codes in the location filled ?
