Hello everyone,
I'm new with PowerBI and currently working on a project and need to develop a map for Mexico. I tried to use Shape Maps following the instructions, but I noticed that the Map Key is wrongly coded. I attached a screenshot for your reference. ISO abbreviature is wrong for Mexico City, Colima, Coahuila, and Chiapas.
Do you know how can I fix it? I think this problem is related to what @GyFatz and @v-yingjl were working previously.
Looking forward to reading your comments.
Best,
The first thing to do is report it on support.powerbi.com so that it can be fixed.

This may not stop you from making the shapemap work if there is one of the other columns in your data to use as a key. (It'll be annoying to see the wrong abbr in a tooltip but should still work)

Alternatively, find a third party shapemap of mexico on the web or make your own.
