Google Data Studio Geo map Invalid Field for Zoom Area

I'm using Google Data Studio to track sales. I'm trying to utilizes the Geo Map to show the locations of "active" clients ( I have established a filter for active clients already).

I'm using City as the Dimension and Total sales as the metric. However, my Zoom Area option just show "Invalid Field" and doesn't let me change to anything else.

I have a Country Code, Region Code, City, State fields for location. I don't have a Zip Code location.

How do I changed by Zoom Area to Zoom in on the Country of a particular Country Code?

You have to change the data type of your fields to Geo data types respectively (like if you have a text field Country representing Country then change this to Geo data type Country) on your source. Go to "Resource > Manage added data sources > Edit" and change the data type of the field.
