Potential challenges

• Accessing exernal resources (api.mapbox.com)
• Applying ESlint checks (we should do this anyway)

Keen to see this resolved as it is affecting my clients especially the Moore Foundation. Please let me know how this can be prioritised.

Same here. What needs to be done such that this happens?

Is there a timeline for this?

According to Power BI documentation no custom visual can get certified that:

Accessing external services or resources. For example, no HTTP/S or WebSocket requests can go out of Power BI to any services

As all map custom visuals need to download map content from outside Power BI, none can get certified for now. (Power BI team did not provide a timeline for this, but they are thinking about doing something with this restriction.)

The ArcGIS visual also accesses external services, but still is part of the standard visuals, so this requirement seems odd.
