Capturing Data Snapshot

I have created a PBI Report in Desktop and published it to the Service.  It contains one data table and date table.  It refreshes twice a day.  I want to capture the table each day so I can report on the data on a specific date in the past.  Is there a function where PBI will copy the table each day and automatically export it and date stamp it so I can then report on it?

however, the data exported us limited to 100k rows. Can be split into multiple files if the data is larger than 100k rows. There is a youtube video from DAX Fridays that explains how to do that.
