    Hi guys,
    I know it is an old post - but clustering pushpins on Google Maps is available via this free PowerBI visual
    Google Maps for Power BI (microsoft.com)
    Rather simple thing to do.

    (Please Note, I'm one of the developers of this visual, so I am biased :))

      Hi IGROK,

       

      since you are one of the developers I would like to ask you a question.

       I am currently working on a report with a google maps visual. I have bought a Gmaps Key but I cannot drag and drop the coordinates. It simply does not accept them in to their respective fields. The coordinates work fine with the Bing maps visual but I would rather use google maps. Do you have any idea on how to go on about this?

       

      Thank you for your help!!

        Hey Yazanjawhar

        Change the data type in the data set to decimals. (most likely you have text now).

        Sorry just saw these questions.

      Hi IGROK,

      is there a way to use measure in the tooltip for the Google Map? Looks like it does not allow it.

        The custom google maps visual i posted before will not be able to achieve it, instead you could try and use the Mapbox visual in order to get something similar
