ArcGIS for Power BI not supported on Report Server – any alternative?

Hi,

I’m using Power BI Report Server (on-prem) and ArcGIS for Power BI shows the message:


“This map does not meet the requirements for Power BI Report Server.”

Screenshot 2026-01-10 175624.png

 

I understand ArcGIS is not supported on Report Server.
Is there any recommended alternative or workaround for map visuals in an on-prem environment?

Thanks.

Thank you for checking in.

This has been clarified and resolved.


ArcGIS for Power BI is not supported on Power BI Report Server, and we’ll proceed with supported on-prem alternatives (e.g., Shape Map / built-in maps).

 

Appreciate the support.

ArcGIS for Power BI is not supported on Power BI Report Server, and there’s no workaround to make that specific visual work on-prem. These are supported on Report Server:

 

1. Built-in Map & Filled Map visuals 

  • Bubble maps (latitude/longitude)

  • Filled maps (country/state/region)

  • Bing Maps geocoding (limited but works)

 

2) Shape Map (TopoJSON) 

  • You load a TopoJSON file (custom boundaries)

  • Bind it to a column in your model

  • Fully offline / on-prem compatible
