Unable to enable map tools or feature information in ArcGIS Maps for PowerBI

Kbray_gis_ — Fri, 16 Aug 2024 01:10:25 GMT

I'm currently trying to use ArcGIS Maps for Power BI,

I've added in a map, and added in a feature service from ArcGIS Online (Suburb Data), however I am unable to interact with the layer or enable any of the map tools in the Visualization pane, they seem to flicker on then off,

I have a pro license for powerBI and correct licensing in ArcGIS Online,

What could be causing this issue?

Think I figured it out, the options only work if you have data fields in the "Add data to your visual" pane, so in other words you can't just have a single layer from ArcGIS Online in there and have users interact with that layer, you need to also include other data fields from other data table you might have in PowerBI.

Hi @Kbray_gis_ ,

I'm glad you figured this out! The tools control under Visualizations only works if you add Power BI data on the map. If there's no Power BI data added, the map won't be saved too.

Thanks!
