Hi,
I am new to mapping so sorry if this is a basic question...

I would like to create a map that groups county or zip code shapes into larger shapes and then export this as a KML or GeoJSON file for use in Power BI.  When I create a layer in the product from my list of counties for example, I only see dots, not shapes.  So I would appreciate any suggestions for this.

Attached is an example of what I would like to end up with.  thanks for any help!

You can use the Dissolve tool in ArcGIS Pro. Once you have created the dissolved layer, you can export it as a KML or GeoJSON file for use in Power BI.

Thanks for your reply.  This was part of the solution.  I was able to reach someone from Esri support to walk me through the entire process.  It was basically Select, Dissolve, Merge, Export.

Thanks again.
