I am able to create ArcGI maps in my desktop but when I publish then and load them on web, its blanks.

    Hi satish,

     

    ArcGIS Maps can display in Power BI Service now. See:

     

     

     

    Power BI provides the ability for users, tenant administrators, and IT administrators to manage whether to use ArcGIS Maps for Power BI. In your scenario, please check if you have enabled option below:

     

     

     

    If you still can't display the ArcGIS Maps, the issue can be that your tenant administrators, and IT administrators don't enable this feature. For more information, please refer to this article: Managing use of ArcGIS Maps for Power BI within your organization.

     

    Best Regards,
    Qiuyun Yu

        I am not able to see those options on the power bi web side either.

        Works fine in desktop, just a blank frame on web service.

      I'm also still experiencing a blank map on the web, is this available on all plans and in all locations?

    Advice as how to enable Re: ArcGIS map in the Web as a free user would be most welcome,  as I have failed to read any solution.  Perhaps  the facility cannot be accessed by free users,  if so please advise as to what I need to do.  I have been using Re: ArcGIS within the Desktop and think it is fantastic.

     

    Thanks in anticipation

      hjameelqcristianomoraes Until an official response lands, my guess is that the feature isn't supported in publish to web yet, and may not be. I say that from the standpoint that ArcGis is a mapping service that is integrated with Power BI, yet they sell that service online - see here. I would guess a couple things. 1) The map is still (in preview) in Power BI, and previews tend to not work compeletely end to end or be offered in all aspects of the tool until fully implemented. 2) given the nature of the relationship, I would assume it is either an add-on, or paid way to publish and use their maps publically or in a limited fashion.

       

      These are just guesses at the moment, but I'm not really surprised that it doesn't work in Publish to Web mainly because it is "in-preview"

    Hi there,

     

    I am not able to view Arcgis maps in power bi desktop.

     

    Here is the screenshot.

     

    I had enabled arcgis in preview features also.

     

    Could you please let me know how to enable Arcgis in power bi desktop.

     

     

    Regards,

    Jai

    I have the latest release and get the same image as above. I have checked all my options and everything is set correcty. However, the map will not load. Any suggestions?

      Not sure if this functionality is a teaser or what the long-range plan is, but this is one of those cases I wished I'd read the full overview of this functionality before I started development.

       

      I, and my company, were very excited to leverage ArcGIS in Power BI, rather than the standard map visual. After developing and testing and a few ArcGIS visuals in PBI Desktop I was disapointed to find that they are not supported for Power BI publish to the Web, nor Power BI Embeded, and not even Power BI service embedding (PowerBI.com). See this link for the PBI considerations and limitations.

       

      Apparently, we can only render the visuals in PBI Desktop, Service, or Mobile. To say the least this is a real bummer and isn't a feasible solution to deploy to end users. 

       

      To the "Powers" that be; we would be willing to pay a reasonable subscription with ESRI to have this fully functional.

       

      Thanks!
