Are you talking about an interactive Map chart?

Hi,

I'm refering to getting to work this chart option:

You will need to either load a KML file in the script editor, or tag map fields in the script with either $geopoint or $geopolygon.

Example:

TAG FIELD "Area" WITH $geopolygon;

I have attached two sample KML files that can be used in Qlik Sense.  Please note, for tagging map points, fields must be formatted as [longitude, latitude] with the square brackets included.

Hello,

Just a quick point on this - note the (Beta) next to the mapping chart type.  We are continuously working to improve this functionality and make it more intuitive and powerful going forward.

Thanks!

There is also a video in the works describing this process for the Map(Beta). It will be posted in the the documents section shortly.
