Using existing ArcGIS maps/features and linking map features with the database

Hello,

 

I'm wondering if there is a way to export existing gis map onto power bi and link the map features to the database. I have two sets of data, one shaped as lines and one shaped as points (circles) on gis. These are map visuals of the database I have and each line/circle on gis has an id it's associated with (as a field in the attribute table).

 

I would love to be able to export the gis map onto power bi, link the features to the database using its id (just like you join data on gis), and the map features to be interactive with the rest of the database (when I select map features, other visuals on power bi will update accordingly).

 

I've tried to achieve this using power bi functions that I know but it hasn't been successful especially since it looks like power bi only offers point shape map features (circles). I've also looked at Mapbox and Synoptic Panel.

 

If anyone knows any custom visual options (paid subscription is fine) or a way to achieve this on power bi, please let me know! Thanks in advance!
