ianmonatThank you for the reply, I did read about shape maps but i understand they are for Power BI Desktop files only and I am trying to keep this report in Power BI web service.
Hi ianmonat,
You can create ShapeMap visual in Power BI Desktop and publish your report to Power BI Service following the instructions in this article:https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-desktop-upload-desktop-files/.
Thanks,
