Inserting map with peaks

Hi there!

 

So, I am a rookie on PBI and I've been searching on using a map on PBI. Apparently, with Google Maps APIs, it is realatively easy to do so. Question is, I want to add a map to PBI, but also add the peak hours for a certain shopping, for instance. Is it possible? If so, how would you do it?

 

Thank you in advance! 🙂

 

Cheers,

 

Fil

What do you mean peaks hours for a certain shopping?

Hi there @Eric_Zhang Smiley Happy

 

Sorry for not explaining my point properly. So, my goal is to get a specific place on the map added to power bi, and then obtain its popular times, exactly like you obtain at google tool whenever you look for a specific city attraction (example - https://www.google.pt/search?q=london+eye+&oq=london+eye+&gs_l=psy-ab.3..35i39k1j0l9.3443.3664.0.397....

 

Therefore, I want to be able to search for the place on google maps integrated on PBI, and also obtain its popular times, as if I am just googling the place and get the graphic for this on Google. I am about to think that this ain't possible yet, as the data is not available yet, according to https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/35827350 Smiley Frustrated

 

I would probably  have to add the graphic with the popular times on google maps on power bi, but not sure how....

 

Thanks for passing by! Smiley Very Happy
