Change Source data by moving Data points on Visual

Hello,

 

Is that possible that you change/ move Data points directly on visuals and Data gets updated in the source database?

like in Line Chart Visual, if I moved the data point from 100 units to 50 and data gets updated in the source.

Thanks,

Hi, @yogeshmaney 

Are you referring to the visualizations in powerbi?

Sorry for that  there seems to be no such visual effect that allows you to change the source data only by moving the data point  on visual.

No this is not possible with out of the box visuals

but I believe that PowerOn have their own custom visuals which support doing callbacks to a custom web service, which can in turn update your source database. So this is *technically* possible but has a number of limitations. You would have to use specific custom visuals and you have to use specific data sources. I believe you need SSAS on-prem or Azure AS to host your backend models for the PowerOn visuals to work. A Power BI premium workspace with the XMLA read/write endpoint may also work, I don't believe a normal "pro" workspace would work with their technology.
