O PowerBI pode exibir em um mapa a partir de um endpoint ArcGIS REST?

Question

Neste caso, estou tentando _não_ usar o ArcGIS para PowerBI, pois tenho usuários que são apenas Visualizadores, e o ArcGIS Maps para PowerBI estranhamente exige que os usuários tenham o papel de Creator, mesmo que tudo o que eles queiram fazer seja visualizar serviços. <\/P> Então, estou curioso para saber como / se é possível fornecer a um usuário um endpoint REST para um serviço de feição de ponto, polígono ou linha (por exemplo, https:\/\/mygis.domain.com\/arcgis\/rest\/services\/demopolygon\/MapServer\/0\/query<\/A>), e conectar isso a um mapa do PowerBI (a ferramenta bing map). <\/P>Sou completamente novo no PowerBI aqui, então se houver alguma documentação ou passo a passo, isso seria ótimo. <\/P> Se isso não for possível, por que um usuário precisa do papel Creator para poder apenas visualizar<\/EM> camadas?!?!<\/P>

Hi @Jay_Gregory  - I am working on the same thing. We don't even care about the map component, just using the underlying data. This article is really good at stepping you through the process - https://resource.esriuk.com/blog/how-to-use-arcgis-with-power-bi/

Though I have come across several issues so far including date/time formatting, how to pass credentials for secured data, and having to publish services that allow for over 2000 records to be queried at once. If you have found a better way please let me know!

Yes it is basically pulling in the JSON result of your REST query.

In the PBI query Editor, put something like the following for the source and followed with some data transformation steps:

=Json.Document(Web.Contents("ArcGIS Rest Query here"))

The ESRIJSON part will be a little tricky to deal with, but it's doable.

To avoid the license issue for the viewers, your content needs to be shared with everyone in AGOL or Enterprise.

Even if users do use Maps for Power BI (with Creator license), they need to a) display some data (drag lat / long fields from power bi to get any map to show) b) still no way to pull in an arbitrary REST endpoint.  It would need to be added as an item in Portal or Online for a PowerBI user to be able to see in it Maps for PowerBI.
