Add a Customized Message or a Row in Excel Exported from Power BI

Hello,

 

I am trying to add a Custom Message in Excel Exported from Power BI. Do we have any functionality in Power BI which can do that. Currently Excel Export shows only Applied Filters

 

Regards,

Vamshi Regalla

    It is not possible to include any text as you mentioned but as a workaround, you can create a simple measure like 

    Message = "Your text" and include it in the visual then it will export with this text.

    Hi Anonymous 

    At present, you can only export the data by adding a measure to this visual. Like this :

    Measure = "Customized Message"

    You can also put your suggestions in Ideas Forums .

      Thank you for giving a work around. I did use one more logic. I have added a custom message as a slicer. Hid it under visuals so that whenever a report is exported, custom message is also shown in Excel Export. doesnt exactly work the way I want but its an option for Simple Custom Messages.
