Button that add a value in a table
Hi Community,
I'm new to Power Bi and wanted to ask if there is a solution to my problem. I can't find anything concrete on Google.
I would like to add a button that triggers an action. The action is intended to insert a value into the column of a table. So on my first page I placed a button and on my second page I have a table. When the button is clicked, a value should be added to the table column. Does something like this work?
Best regards Olivia
I don't believe that Power BI has a function like this natively, you can achieve this effect using powerapps though so I'd have a look into that. Looks like there is a post about it here: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Desktop/Using-Power-Apps-to-append-data-into-Power-BI/td-p/1323852
You can use sharepoint lists and have users manually enter data in there and read it into power BI if you don't want to use powerapps, though personally I am a fan of powerapps.

thank you for your answer. So the native/available buttons in Power Bi don't work for this action and I definitely have to work with Powerapps?
