Is it possible to receive input from the user through Power BI. Or is the extent of their interface simply filtering and clicking predefined buttons?
Solved! Go to Solution.
HI @eleung,
Actually there are lots programming languages can achieve these operations, you can take a look at below link about submit userform and save data to database:
Introducing ASP.NET Web Pages - Entering Database Data by Using Forms
After above operations, you only need to connect to correspond database and create visualization based on these data.

Can you give me an idea of how prgramming language might help?
I have determined I need programming language to save the data given to me by the end user, I'm just trying to determine if PowerBI can allow me to take that data or if I will have to create a separate web form that will take info as well as publish my PowerBI visualizations there. Thoughts?
Thanks for your help!
