    Try this combination. I've gotten the desired results with this combination:

     

    Postal code&" "&State.

     

    Referring to the pbix, you sent me:

Hi Unfortunately not.

I'm giving up on it for a while - its something that has occurred while I am learning about Powe BI mapping. I'm more than happy to provide the pbi file - however not sure how to load that up as that isn't an option on my message screen. Am happy to share via email/dropbox etc.

 

If I get any further (i will try latitude/longitude at some point) I'll have another go and if I ever figure it out will post here. 

BTW - tried using just isolated examples, changing data category, concatenating values (such as zip and country, zip, city, country etc) together. Hopefully will become clearer as I get better at this.

I see. You can always send me the locations at [email protected].

 

I wish you luck with figuring out how the map feauteres work in Power BI. They are not straight forward.
