shape map blank

I'm having an issue when I try to create a Shape Map. When I select the data it is blank. I've tried/troubleshot the following:

 

- Shape Map visual option is turned on in Preview Settings

- Not a network issue, all other Power BI maps work

- Map Data is categorized correctly (i.e. city and state)

- Value data is numerical and not summarized

 

I would appreciate any help. Thanks,

@bbillman,

 

Could you clarify more details about what you have done before this issue happens and share some sample data?
