Alteryx as a data source
Thanks for the tip. The issue with the Publish to Power BI approach is that it only works on Power BI Service (Cloud), not on Prem (Power BI Reporting Server). Also, it requires you to 1st publish your workflow as a Power BI Cloud table/dataset, and then create your Power BI Dashboard based on published table/dataset. This is too convoluted and there are security issues to address. It would be much simpler if Alteryx workflow could just be used as a Data Source, that way you just use Power BI Desktop, select your data source and create your dashboard. I wonder if this is an Alteryx issue that they don't want to create a true connector/driver, or maybe it's Microsoft's way of pushing clients to adopt Power Flow which directly competes with Alteryx.
ahpitre2 ,
I would suggest you create an idea here to help power bi improve.
