Power Bi Desktop Country and Cost by Country fields empty
Hi
Can anyone advise why the Country and Cost by Country fields are blank? Are there any URL's that I need to unblock in order to get these working? Thanks.

What type of Visualization are you trying to use and what kind of data is in each of those columns? Often in my experience this is caused by underlying defaults of data types or attempting to use a type of data the visula is not built to handle. For example.....

When I have a look in the Data tab I can see the Population field is categorised as a text column:
By Changing the data type to something numeric I can now generate the chart:

Thank you for taking the time to respond. It's much appreciated. The data is very basic (see below) and I've checked and it's set to "whole number" and "text". The visualization that we're trying to use is the Map.
I'm beginnging to wonder whether it's possibly blocked on our corporate broadband.
