    Hi jonnynd,

     

    To pin the Excel tables to a dashboard, there are two ways you can try:

     

    1. If you are using the desktop version Excel 2007 or later, as donsvensen suggested, you can install Power BI publisher for Excel add-in then pin elements to a dashboard. For more information, please refer to this article: Power BI publisher for Excel.

     

    2. If the Excel is stored in OneDrive for Business or another group-shared document library, you can connect to this Excel in Power BI Service, then pin the table to a dashboard. See: Pin a tile to a Power BI dashboard from Excel.

     

    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

     

    Best Regards,
