Hi,
Every since the latest ARCGIS update for PowerBI released within the last month, I've been plagued by a myriad of bugs which make is unusable for any practical use in reporting.
FYI Currently running PowerBI 2.97.921.0 64-bit (September 2021), I have also cleared my caches in the options menu>data load area as I've seen some potential someone else on the form saying this may be a solution.
First issue and probably most significant is that the map will forget settings you've selected.
This covers the location type page:
- if I interact with slicers on the report to change the postcodes shown on the map, the matching will switch from exact match to closest, and will sometimes even switch from showing boundaries to points!
- it then plagues me with this warning to switch the accuracy back to exact match!
Also impacts the symbology page
- again, filtering with the slicer can cause the colour ramp to not update properly (postcodes being shaded as other despite having a valid value)
- the colour ramp scale can reverse
- the colour ramp can reset entirely back to the default orange colours
- the method selected can default to natural break, even if I've selected equal interval
- symbol style can rest - if I set it up as have black semi-transparent borders it can reset back to white borders at 100% opacity
The newly added labels feature also can reset and disappear upon filtering with the slicer.
The tooltip doesn't carry over formatting set to measures in PowerBI (i.e percentages are shown as decimal numbers):
Should note also that refreshing the powerbi workbook can cause all the issues listed above to occur.
Is it at all possible to roll back this update, or at the very least have a different branch of the arcgis maps where you can use the legacy version on PowerBI? This update renders a bunch of our key reports useless.
Happy to hear back any updates.
I do have an example PowerBI workbook set up which i've managed to recreate the above issues with - I'm happy to share it but the forum won't allow me to upload powerbi files to posts.
Again, I'm happy to email across should a support rep need it.
