We are running into some issues with the join layer. I’m currently on version 2024.2.500.0 and I can't seem to upgrade to a more recent version (not by installing the latest Power BI version manually from Microsoft.com or by downloading it through the Microsoft Store).

I have setup a join-layer and a filter to zoom in on different custom polygons. The issues I have are as follows:

  • The join layer does work for a bit, but stops working once I try to use the select tool or just stops.. after a while.
  • The select tool does not work at all.
  • When join layer is "working", the map sometimes does not react to a filter and the filter needs to be clicked once more to have an effect.
  • When going from one filter to another, often there is smooth transition, but other times it just jumps.

We are just starting to explore the option of working with Power BI (and the ArcGIS integration). However, the initial impression left us sligthly dissapointed. Fingers crossed this can be resolved.

Best regards,
Wouter

Hi @MarissaWSAM,

I found a workaround (however, not ideal).

When I replaced the feature layer with a hosted feature layer, the problem seemed to be solved. I hope however this can be looked at @NaZhang_Esri, since we prefer not to use hosted layers.

Best regards,
Wouter
