Load report data

After the visual is on the canvas, load or connect the report dataset. The visual requires geographic coordinates; the supplied configuration guide does not support converting a plain-text address directly into a plotted record.

Note

Addresses used by the Address Search feature are a separate interactive search capability. Dataset records still require coordinates according to the supplied setup guide.
