    deldersveld Thank you so much, that works great!!  Here's are screen captures of the process.

     

    Step #1: select the shapefile using ArcGIS Project tool & set parameters

     

     Step #2: Parameters selected

     

     Step #3: Use mapshaper.org to convert shapefile to json format

     

     Step #4: Save as TopoJSON

     

     Step #5: Use TopoJSON file in Power BI:smileyvery-happy:
