Microsoft Places Upload Errors
Yes, the manual steps are described on that page. The correlation appears to be mainly adding "directory_id" property to each feature that's relevant to link it to the PlacesId for the building/floor/resource as needed. The error you are seeing suggests that there is no feature that has a directory_id linked to the floor.
- First generate a CSV of all the buildings/floor/resources from places
- Import your IMDF using Import-MapCorrelations
- The above step will create a mapfeatures.csv which you have to manually update with the details from the CSV from step 1
- Import your IMDF again along with the mapfeatures.csv using Import-MapCorrelations
- The above step will save a new correlated imdf to your folder. Then use New-Map but pointed to the correlated IMDF not your original.
It's likely you can correlate manually by adding all the directory_id entries directly into your IMDF, but the above steps worked for us.
Hi Nigel - Thanks for responding. Is that step done in Archilogic or whatever tool is used to create the IMDF? Or is the correlation done in PowerShell?
When we tried this, we didn't go the manual route. We just did the steps above the manual instructions here: Configure floorplans - Microsoft 365 Places | Microsoft Learn

Thank you, Nigel! I will report back.
