ESRI ArcGIS maps arent saving changes

I am using the free, out-of-the-box ESRI ArcGIS map visual.  I built this visual last year and had no trouble., so this isnt an RTFM situation.

 

I opened the PBIX and the visual looks like it reset to defaults.  Ok, stuff happens so I reconfigured it. 

Well, after saving and going back to the page with the visual, the defaults appear again. 

 

So, now, I have to publish the report (other changes were made) with an ESRI map that looks different because I cant preserve my changes.

 

I'm going to guess I am the only person on the planet seeing this issue, but I'd figure I would reach out take a shot.

 

TIA

With the May version of Power BI this bug is back. If I set the location type to one country and a boundary map then change tabs all the settings are lost. I have also found that if I set the map to show colours and sizes for shapes the settings don't hold. This bug is currently making this map unusable. I hope this can be fixed soon.

I am having the same issue as Advocate IV.  Yesterday (5/20), I had all of my maps/sheets confirgued to how I needed them with specific color ramps, symbol ranges, and map styles.  I opened it this morning, edited a bit more, saved, and ever since, my maps keep changing to what appears to be a default setting.  Even when I edit a map and save, same thing happens.  Also happens when I edit a map, select a different tab, go back to the tab with the map I edited, same thing happens.  This bug is truly making the maps unusable at this point.  Hope this bug can be fixed soon.

Hello,
I solved it by installing last month's update (April 2020), the problem is horrible, hopefully they will correct it in the next update, hopefully it will work for them.

Aparently Esri are aware of this issue and are working on it. Lets hope they have it fixed soon. It makes the visual unusable. https://community.esri.com/thread/253669-power-bi-visual-looses-all-settings
