Has anyone experienced an issue with custom map layers disappearing?

Ryan Black

I have a custom GeoJSON map layer file that was uploaded and working fine for the past year. However, in the last several weeks, it has sporadically disappeared (but some days reappearing) essentially rendering multiple visualizations that use the map layer as unusable.

Perhaps there was a change in the most recent update that triggered this? I have tried re-uploading the same GeoJSON file and get the error:

"Creation failed possibly from invalid GeoJSON or invalid storage configuration."

The file is only 680 KB so should not be too big. Any insight would be helpful!

Hi Ryan,

Please clarify for the community which analytics product you are using (and if on-prem, the update, and patch level). Thanks!

Yes, the GeoJSON disappeared in the dev3healtc instance. Map visualizations that were functional on 2/14/25 are failing as of 2/18/25.

Update - My team approached Mike Fuqua for advice on this issue. Our GeoJSON file has been restored as of this morning. Thanks Mike!
