I'm doing some Power BI with record releases. I would like to display release country on a map, but for Germany I have a problem: I would like to display West and East Germany and the re-united Germany. And how do I deal with Yugoslavia?

I have a PowerBI Table visual looking at a list of locations, and the technology at those locations. Occasionally, I have a location that does not get reported by a vendor, but I still have the location's basic information. When I put data from the two tables into a visual, if a vendor is not reporting the location, all of the basic information is blank ONLY AFTER a column that is populated by vendor data. If the vendor reports the location, all data are preserved. I have moved the location information west of the vendor data, and it will populate. Any advice on what I could be doing incorrectly that leads to data being blank east of blank related data, even when it is in the source table is greatly appreciated:
Data West of Vendor Info is populated
Data East of Vendor Info is blank
table data locations
How can I disable drill through for a particular country.
Ex: we have different country like
Japan,
Russia,
France,
Germany
And we don't need drill through for Germany.
So how can I disable this for Germany country.
I am using Amazon Quicksight as our enterprise BI application within the organization. And now I want to use the spatial data to visualize some maps over Europe and Asia. I see an option to include the US in the maps but I don't see an option to do the same for anything other than the US.
Is this a limitation from the Quicksight team that we can only use maps for the US and no other countries at the moment?
Yes you are right. Currently only the US is supported for the Filled map visualization option. You can find this documented here:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/quicksight/latest/user/geospatial-charts.html
You can work around that using the latitude and longitude coordinates is the visualization called Points on map. You will need to provide the name of the place as an attribute, latitude and longitude.
You can find the list of countries coordinates here
FYI, filled maps are supported at a country level worldwide now. Point maps support down to City level worldwide too (need to add it to a Hierarchy along with the Country field in the data prep screen). Both of these were added in ~July 2021.

My organization uses customized regions for management purposes. As an example we have a region called "Latin America" that includes Chile, Mexico, Argentina etc... and I need to create another column that will group countries to specific regions.
In SQL, I would do something like CASE WHEN...Then...
How can I get this done in Power BI?
I need to get geometry coordinates of the USA states.
I use CloudMade API and it works well for the most states, but for several others I can't find coordinates - CouldMade API returns multiple results for other places, not states.
I use the requests like this one:
http://geocoding.cloudmade.com/e485574f2cf2424aac17f42908aa2ce3/geocoding/v2/find.js?query=HAWAII&return_geometry=true
Here is the list of states which couldn't be processed well.
CONNECTICUT
GEORGIA
HAWAII
FLORIDA
LOUISIANA
MARYLAND
MISSISSIPPI
NEW JERSEY
NORTH CAROLINA
NORTH DAKOTA
SOUTH CAROLINA
SOUTH DAKOTA
Does anybody know, is it possible to get the geo coordinates of these states using CouldMade service or any other geocoding services?
Question is solved. Here is the correct request format (query parameter should contains 'county' prefix):
