Icon Map WKT

Hello , 

 

I need some help making a map with origin and destination and wkt on Icon Map. I have tried everything and watched every single tutorial but it seems that I am doing something wrong. 😭

The wkt doesn't work for me (see screenshot bellow). Any idea what I am doing wrong? 

 

Please find my pbix file here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lBBcGHLCI1MJ_mGzZ6HkU4XqdXbgfpwk/view?usp=sharing

 

Thank you! 

Eloise

For a start your WKT text is formatted wrong. For example, you have your WKT like:
LINESTRING(-1,999 43,999,-0,999 45,999)

When it should be:

LINESTRING(-1.999 43.999,-0.999 45.999)

Notice the decimal places have been added instead of commas. A comma should only be used to separate a coordinate pair.

 

You also have empty values. See examples of these issues highlighted in red in the image:
