Data export to excel using macros

‎08-13-2017 12:15 PM
I am just wondering if I can export visuals data out to excel using macros. If anyone is using such macro can share the code. I know it can be done through just by clicking the export data. But I want a macro for that as I need this data to be extracted to different excel templates.

As @MattAllington said, marco is not supported in Power BI Desktop. Since you can export the visual data into .csv file, you can use that file as data source in Excel. It can be used by different excel templates as well.
