I deal with a great amount of time-series data (100'000 records for tens of series) and the limit of 1000 points in line charts is very restrictive to me, particularly when the series belong to 10 or more different series (each series is undersampled to 100 (1000/10) or less points making a very zig-zagged chart).
Other commercial software can manage up to 30x10^6 points in a chart. Is it possible to increase this 1000 points limitation, let's say, to 100'000 points?

RE: Increase number of points in chart visualizations.

This is a MUST !
No need to mention that we can easily face situations where more than 3500 data points need to be displayed.

Do you have any updates please ?

Completely agree! I can't even demo Power BI to management because of this issue!

Also we need min/max/avg **per series**. I can do this with a trendline, why not min/max etc.?

This is MUST for a reliable BI reporting tool.
missing data points make it unreliable.

We keep having this problem in the map visual. We have areas with more than 1000 addresses that need to be shown on the map individually.

I have US county and Parish names. It would be great if Bing would recognize them. I do realize that this would mean dealing with a political subregion below state for other places in the world but I can't imagine Bing doesn't have those polygons.

RE: Increase number of points in chart visualizations.

All "hard stop limits" within the tool should be configurable. Setting these makes the tool unusable in certain situations. Let end users gauge and set these limits appropriately!
