Corporate Spend Learning Sample won't display maps and filled map visuals

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/sample-corporate-spend

 

Reg9k_0-1739897480179.png

I get this error in the service (app.powerbi.com) in the Learn sample and I get the same error from the downloaded PBIX file in desktop. I have a pro license for Desktop and a Fabric free license. The documentation from the learn site doesn't state I need anything special to see this. What is it I need to see this?

 

Thanks,

Reg

Hi! It has to be enabled in the tenant settings. If you have access to do this, here is a YouTube that shows you how 🙂

Clearing the cache and restarting Power BI Desktop can often resolve visualization issues. Make sure you're using the latest version, as updates frequently fix known problems.
