Hi all,
I've developed a free web tool designed to help with creating custom TopoJSON files for Power BI's shape map visual.
The tool allows you to start with a base map and visually select or deselect the specific regions/countries you want included in your map. Once you've made your selection, you can download a TopoJSON or GeoJSON file containing only those chosen regions/countries.
This is intended to help when you need a shape map showing a specific subset of areas (e.g., only states within a certain region) without needing separate GIS software.
The tool is free to use and available here:
Feedback or suggestions are welcome. Let me know if you find it useful.

Hi @ZT_BI,
Thanks so much for sharing this powerbimapshaper.com is a fantastic initiative.
Tools like yours that simplify the process of generating custom TopoJSON/GeoJSON files for Power BI Shape Maps are incredibly helpful, especially for users without access to or experience with traditional GIS software.
Being able to visually select regions and export a clean, minimal TopoJSON file really streamlines custom mapping scenarios in Power BI.
