Embedding Power BI in Experience Builder

Question

Hello,

I have an Experience Builder app that I created one year ago, and it includes an embedded Power BI report that uses the ArcGIS for Power BI visual. It had been working fine, and I hadn’t checked it for a while. Today, when I opened the Experience Builder app, all visuals that use ArcGIS for Power BI stopped working and now show the following message:

ArcGIS for Power BI
This map does not meet the requirements for embedded reports.

What is the problem? Has something changed, some update?

Hi JV,

After testing, I am experiencing the same behaviour as you - I can only validate a map that contains public layers.

If this was working prior to the update, I would recommend raising a support case with your local distributor so we can investigate.

Hello,

The data is in latitude and longitude and consists of only 18 points. This feature used to work, but now it doesn’t. I assume ESRI introduced an update within the last five months. I’ve noticed there is now a validation button that didn’t exist before, and the map must now be public. Previously, this wasn’t required, as it’s the same map—restricted to my company—that used to work but no longer does. It’s a shame; I had to switch to the Microsoft Map visual, which has no issues. My goal was to use the ESRI visual to select the points from which I want to display data in the Power BI report. At this point, there’s no reason to use the ArcGIS Visual for Power BI. If I want only people from my company to see the map, I can’t integrate it into my Experience Builder application for internal users only.

Hi JV,

Power BI data used to create the ArcGIS for Power BI map must use latitude and longitude coordinates for locations or Esri JSON in the Location field well. If the Location field well contains addresses or standard boundaries, you can't publish to the web.

A published map can contain a maximum of 30,000 locations. Do you know if your map contains more than 30,000 locations?
