power BI map doesnt' work correctly once published

I create one column (Place)=

"Australia" &"" & post code
 
and then I make the column category = plance
 
It works well in power BI desktop
 
but once I published
 
it looks like this-- only 1 or 2 dots shown

(but when I just use post code for the map) --- the service and destkop work both well (but post code is not accurately shown in Map -- so are shown in USA )

Hi @baron33 ,

 

You could update your desktop to the latest version(2.81.5831.501 May 2020) and re-publish the report to service.

Create a separate Location column in your data

Because the Location field can contain only a single value, it's best to create a new column in your dataset that combines all the address information (such as address, city, state, and ZIP Code) into a single, comma-separated values column that you can then use to add location-based information to your map.

Note:

Convert address and ZIP Code values to text format (Format: Text) before concatenating columns.

Using the Power BI Desktop Report Editor on the Modeling tab, in the Fields pane, click More next to the dataset you want to edit and choose New Column. Create a custom DAX formula that combines fields from multiple address columns into a single column. For example, to combine Address, City, Province, and Postal Code columns, your formula should look something like this:

Column = [Address] & ", " & [City] & ", " & [Province] & ", " & [Postal Code]

Give your new column a name that lets you easily identify it as your combined location data.
