Can't publish my excel pivot tables to power bi

[Anonymous]

Hi guys,

I've started to use the publish option in power bi. I'm a free user. All good with my reports from pbi.

In excel, also can publish my pivot tables and basic reports. Suddenly maybe because the pivot was too big, but it showed me this:

Since then, i cannot publish any kind of excel report. I don't know what to do now. 

Can anyone help me?

Thank you so much

HI @Anonymous,

Power bi not support excel pivot tables, please try to use power bi desktop to get data or import contents from excel sheet and build your own report, then use 'publish' option to publish report to power bi service.

If you mean excel power bi publisher plugin, AFAIK, this plugin hasn't updated for a long time and it seems like not compatible with new workspace.

Hi V-Shex

Thank you for your answer, but:

1. I have 3 reports of excel pivot tables published in pbi on a dashboard. It's true that i can't open them (it seems both of them are "freezed") but they were published without any problems

2. I also have published another 2 or 3 excel boards with charts included. They also seem like an image cose they cannot open.

Now my question: what kind of reports can i publish in power bi? Cose i think an year ago or so, i could publish everything. Anything has change or did i do something wrong?

Let me remind you that i'm using the free user version

Thank you so much for your help

Hi @Anonymous,

As I said, power bi publisher plug-in will publish and pin your excel contents to power bi dashboard.(unsupported excel contents will analysed as tiles which can't be opened)

In my opinion, you can try to use 'import' feature to import your excel workbook content to power bi, power bi will analyse supported contents as visual/charts, then you publish them at power bi desktop side.

Import Excel workbooks into Power BI Desktop
