JSON file to customize Power BI template : how to customize the map theme?

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I have been working on a JSON file to customize my power BI template and one of the last things that doesn't work is the map theme cusotmization. Here is whate I wrote :

  "map": {
			"*": {
				"legend": [{
					"show": false,
					"position": "Top",
					"showTitle": true,
					"titleText": "",
					"legendColor": { "solid": { "color": "#FFFFFF"}},
					"fontFamily": "Arial Black",
					"fontSize": 12
				}],
				"dataPoint": [{
					"defaultCategoryColor": { "solid": { "color": "#01B1AA"}},
					"showAllDataPoints": true
					
				}],
				"categoryLabels": [{
					"show": false,
					"color": { "solid": { "color": "#EEEEEE"}},
					"fontSize": 10,
					"fontFamily": "Arial Black",
					"enableBackground": true,
					"backgroundColor": { "solid": { "color": "#FFFFFF"}},
					"backgroundTransparency": 50
				}],				
				"bubbles": [{
					"bubbleSize": 3
				}],
				"mapControls": [{
					"autoZoom": true,
					"zoomLevel": 50,
					"centerLatitude": 43,
					"centerLongitude": -83
				}],
				"mapStyles": [{
					"maptheme": "Grayscale"
				}]
			}
		},

Unfortunately, when I import my theme, the map theme remains the default Road theme and not the Gray Scale theme I would like. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Hi @Anonymous ,

Please check the sample in this document: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-report-themes

"mapStyles": {
        "mapTheme": [
          {
            "value": "aerial",
            "displayName": "Aerial"
          },
          {
            "value": "canvasDark",
            "displayName": "Dark"
          },
          {
            "value": "canvasLight",
            "displayName": "Light"
          },
          {
            "value": "grayscale",
            "displayName": "Grayscale"
          },
          {
            "value": "road",
            "displayName": "Road"
          }
        ]
    },

The map visual should be changed if we have set the theme true.
