Add a shapefile showing boundaries to a power BI map.

I'm fairly new to Power BI and would like to know if it is possible to add a custom boundary layer to the Map visual?

We have a list of all households within the Borough showing as points on the map, and this works well, but what we would like to do is add in an overlay showing where the ward boundary is.

There is no additional analysis needed, eg how many in each ward, it is purely there as a visual reference.

I have this file available as a shapefile, just not sure how I would go about adding it in to a map.  All tutorials I've seen online so far refer to being able to carry out analysis on the ward (eg showing election results by ward) but I don't want this - just to have the boundary line visible.
