    Anonymous You're right! Power BI’s privacy levels prevent combining Private (API key file) and Public (Azure Maps URL) sources in a single query for data protection. This blocks sending the API key if privacy levels differ.

     

    Solutions:

    1. Temporarily set both sources to Public (safe only for local dev).

    2. Use "Ignore Privacy Levels" for the file (local testing only).

    3. Move the API key to Azure Key Vault and set both to Organizational.

    4. Use Power BI Service parameter credentials in production.
