    Hi All,

    As known, Power BI Map visual uses Bing map. There's something changed in the PBI and Bing map integration. See Bing maps improvements.

     

    Here's some suggestion 

    1. Set DataCategory for the geo column in the Modeling phase
    2. Use a location hierarchy that includes Country to scope the geocoding query, and drill using “hierarchy” drill icon (pitchfork)

    So please download the latest Power BI desktop and follow above two suggestions to tweak map visuals in your report, then re-publish.

for me I have similar issue in a different report

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/Unchanged-report-works-in-2-46-4732-581-broken-in-latest-release/idc-p/192948#M9066

 

Opened the unchanged report in current June Desktop release and I get only one datapoint calls are to

https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Locations?key=AoW85FdF-eTJavFmWhZjaQ970kwG1FuainbyVSlP5HglkbhVVIFOyNwlaQxAIj-S&addressLine=80469%20M%C3%BCnchen%2C%20Germany&c=en-US&maxRes=20&include=ciso2&jsonp=jQuery21103680798492908355_1497349687768&_=1497349690376

 

when I change my location field (its contents is "postal code city, country") to Uncategorized it works again but goes to a different REST endpoint:

 

https://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Locations?key=AoW85FdF-eTJavFmWhZjaQ970kwG1FuainbyVSlP5HglkbhVVIFOyNwlaQxAIj-S&q=85098%20Gro%C3%9Fmehring%20InterPark%2C%20Germany&c=en-US&maxRes=20&include=ciso2&jsonp=jQuery21103680798492908355_1497349687766&_=1497349690406

 

these are the documentations of the two different endpoints

seems the general query endpoint works but other endpoints are affected by the bug???
