Power BI and .TAB files

is it possible to bring MapInfo (.TAB) files into Power BI

 

i'm wanting to overlay Ward information on a map but am unsure of how to do it.  I've tried using Web as a data source to pull information from http://www.data.gov.uk but am not sure how to do it

Hi @duckettj,

 

Nope, power bi not support this type.

 

AFAIK, share map visual support to use custom data(json format), you can refer to following link to know more about this:

Create Your Own Custom Map for Power BI
