Hello,
Would you know how to import a shapefile into power BI?
I tried to use the "Script R" module, but I have errors in the geometry column.
Hi @Venel ,
You can refer the following links to use online tools such as Map Shaper to convert your shapefile into the TopoJSON format first and create shape map visual.
