    I'm not sure whether it is possible or not, but it kind of goes against the idea of filled map. It's not suppose to be destinations, it's suppose to be larger areas. So plotting an entire address doesn't really make sense.

Martin,

 

This is not working for me. can you please try with these pin codes of SRI LANKA:

 

AgaliyaSri Lanka 80212
AhangamaSri Lanka 80650
AhungallaSri Lanka 80562
AkmeemanaSri Lanka 80090
AluthwalaSri Lanka 80332

 

Thanks,

Prasanna V.

It looks like the filled map visualization can't take postal codes from sri lanka. It can however take the cities. Try this combination:

 

Table[City]&" "&Table[Country].

    Dear all,

     

    Please use this data file for mapping (WeTransfer link):

     

    https://we.tl/IVOkIyNyYa

     

     

    One more question: is there any way I can mark complete addres on filled map:

     

    For example: No. 06 Heen Ela Road, 06, Hien Ela Road, Ambalangoda, Southern 80300, SRI LANKA

     

    Thanks,

    Prasanna V.

        Dear Martin,

         

        There should be some record to say that Postal code of Sri Lanka is not working on Power BI

         

        Let me know where to record so that MS can take account of this :-)

         

        Thanks,

        Prasanna V.
