Hi Josh1994 ,

I now better understand that you are specifically asking for a radar chart with colored background bands (like red, yellow, green zones) similar to Excel.

Currently, Power BI's radar chart visuals, including those from the Marketplace, do not support colored background ranges. They can show multiple data series, but not background shading like in Excel.

Here are the options available:

  • Embed your existing Excel radar chart into Power BI using OneDrive or SharePoint. This will keep the background colors and design exactly as you have it.
  • Use a Radar Chart custom visual to plot your data, but background colors will not be possible only line and point colors can be customized.
