Using Maps

I have a scenarion and wanted to know if it can be done in Powe BI:

 

1-Need to show Maps of US

2-Offices in Texas and Arizona have a few data files in PDF and Word  for users to view

3-Example: Would like to clink on Texas in the map and see the list of files available and drill through to those files.

 

Can this be done in Power Bi?

Hi @Anonymous ,

It seems like you want to use tooltip and drill through for value whose data type is URL.

Here is my pbix file.

 

Is the result what you want? If you have any questions, please upload some data samples and expected output.

Please do mask sensitive data before uploading.

Thanks, this was a great idea! I accepted as Solution. Just one additional question, if I am using lat and long to reference a map point, is there a way that the Tooltip can just show the title and dont include the lat and long? I am referencing an area of desert and giving it a name, therefore I have to use Lat and Long for this, I just down want them showing in the Tooltip. I am using the basic map.
