Filled maps work with the free license, you just have to make sure you have enough information for Bing to geocode the data properly.
For the other one, go into your data model and switch the data type to "Whole Number" or "Decimal Number" or do it as part of your query in the Query Editor.
thanks a lot, it's ok for the graphic but what shall i give as information to present my data in the "filled maps"? power Bi is not able to recognize districts?
You'll have to ask that on the Bing Maps forums. Power BI uses Bing for geocoding data like addresses, countries, etc. Am I correct that by "districts" you are referring to the 338 electoral "ridings" in Canada? My guess would be no, Bing Maps does not support those just as I believe Bing Maps does not support the concept of voting "precints" in the US. The new ArcGIS Maps functionality announced at Ignite might though.
To create a filled map, the location data should include Bing Map-supported geographic data, such as country/region, state/province, or postal code.
